Lyon County
Excellent Hunting Tract With Income In Proven Area
1800 60 Road, Lot #WP001 Hartford, KS 66854
Description
Here is a great chance to own an excellent 161 acres mix-use farm with excellent hunting near Hartford and Olpe. I personally own land near this farm and I can attest to the caliber of deer and the quality of wildlife in the area. The property lines on this farm have been surveyed and come with the mineral rights intact. Rural water and power are available at the gravel road making it an ideal place to build a home or a weekend cabin getaway. One great aspect of this farm from a hunting standpoint is that Hoosier Creek runs through the middle of the property which is surrounded by thick mature timber and CRP grass. This creates an ideal property to hold game, as well as being a major travel corridor for neighboring deer to cruise during the rut. The creek is mostly rock bottom, easy to cross, and has water in it year-round except for severe drought years. The property also has two newly built ponds that hold water year-round and are stocked with largemouth bass and perch. A 3rd pond is located east of the homestead that provides an additional water source in the spring and fall months. The west pond has a water valve for winter watering of cattle if desired. The property has 2 new gate entrances providing great access from the road, and there is a camping area at the old homestead with fire rings, which could also make for a great building site for your new home. There are 20 acres fenced off for pasture in the southwest corner of the property. Currently, there is a winter lease for bulls at $250 per year. The bulls go in after hunting season and come out at end of May. The owner has found several Indian artifacts in the creek bottoms throughout the years adding more character and history to the property for the new owner to discover. The mowed trails throughout the whole property provide easy access and are also utilized for back burning for the CRP ground. There are two separate CRP contracts on approx. 85 acres m/l that pays approx. $5,216 annually. Contract #1 is for 54.3 acres and expires 9/30/2023. Contract #2 is for 30.7 acres and expires 9/30/2031. There are 2 food plot locations already broken out, one on each side of the creek, as well as several other ideal locations to expand food plots if the new owner desires. This property has been managed for the last 9 years with limited hunting and is in a great location for quality deer. This farm is a hot spot for turkey as well, and even has several coveys of quail and various other small game and furbearer’s that call this property home. Located near Eagle Creek, it is no surprise bald eagles are often seen on the property during the winter adding a little bit of charm to an already amazing property.
