One look at the aerial of this property is all it takes to see the potential it has. With beautiful Chapman Creek snaking back and forth, there is a total of roughly 6,591 feet, or 1.25 miles of creek frontage. The fishing possibilities are hard to beat. The big, mature timber along both sides of the creek provide excellent wildlife habitat and consists of many different species of hardwood timber, including oak, walnut, and osage orange, among many others. Approximately 115 acres of open ground can be found on the farm, with 55 of those currently in crop production. A wetland determination was done in 1999 on a portion of the property from the northwest corner across the northern half towards the southeast. A portion of the property accessed through this wetland area can be accessed to farm on dry years, but has not been farmed for the last two years. This year, there were roughly 55 acres planted in beans. The fallow portion of the fields have grown up in incredible wildlife bedding and nesting habitat that will make you drool just looking at it. The waterway beginning at the northwest corner of the property has one of the most highly concentrated amounts of rubs I’ve seen. You can’t go more than 10 feet on the property without seeing deer and turkey tracks, and the amount of rubs and scrapes speaks for the deer density on the property. The sellers have had great success with both deer and turkey hunting in the past. In addition, pheasants and quail have frequently been seen on the property. One of the best features of the tract is not only does it have road access from the north and east sides, but a deeded easement coming into the southwest corner provides access to the western half of the property south of Chapman Creek. An old homestead area with a silo and building can be found in the Northeast part of the farm. The location of this tract is second to none, as it is just 15 minutes from Chapman, 23 minutes from Abilene, 42 minutes from Salina, 20 minutes from Junction City, and 40 minutes from Manhattan. Whether you’re seeking a build site on acreage, an addition to your farming operation, or a recreational tract with income potential, this farm has tons to offer.
