Famous for its rich history as a frontier cow town, the legendary Boot Hill, and Old West legends such as Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, Dodge City has long carried on the tradition of the Old West. Also since the mid-1800s, this area has maintained a strong tradition of farming and ranching as a result of its productive soils and large rolling tracts of grassland. In recent decades, the lands of this area of the state have created a reputation for something other than cattle ranching and the historical wagon trails – trophy whitetail deer hunting. Each year people from across the nation travel to this area, not only to tour the famous Boot Hill Museum but also for a hunting experience unlike anywhere else in the country. Trophy whitetail and mule deer, as well as high populations of pheasants and quail, make this a one-of-a-kind destination during the Fall. It has become the norm for this area of Kansas to produce some of the largest whitetail deer in the state each and every year. The creek and river bottoms that run through the heart of this area combined with excellent cropland and rugged pastures creates a perfect combination of seclusion, nutrition, and age structure that is needed to produce Boone & Crockett caliber whitetail deer.

Hunting this part of the country is likely different than anything you’ll ever experience. Wooded creeks with fertile bottom cropland are what the deer prefer, and if you have this type of terrain, you have the majority of the deer, as well as turkeys.  These are the qualities that make this 960-acre property offering very rare and unique. It is undoubtedly one of the few contiguous properties in this area that encompasses all of the land qualities listed above, with the luxury of a modern brick home for total comfort and peacefulness.

Over 3 ½ miles of “Duck Creek” twists and bends through the majority of this land and is surrounded on each side by alfalfa bottoms, tall native and CRP grass, and a certain ruggedness along the borders that allow wildlife to feel safe and secure within its boundaries. Lush alfalfa fields are a magnet for whitetail deer and turkeys, and the deep, brushy creek bottom gives the deer a sense of total isolation from predators and the changing weather conditions. Additional tillable acreage on the property provides diversity in income as well as food sources for the wildlife. Multiple solar powered water wells, springs within the creek, and the 1-acre pond on the property provide reliable water sources year-round for wildlife, as well as livestock. There is very little road frontage along the heart of the hunting habitat on this property giving a tremendous sense of total seclusion for the wildlife, as well as hunters.  

At the end of the private driveway to the farmstead is an exceptionally spacious modern brick home that has been meticulously crafted down to the finest of details. With over 5,600 Sq. Ft. of living space, this beautiful home has everything you will ever need to live in comfort and luxury as a full-time residence or for seasonal visits to the area. This home has a very inviting and sophisticated feel to it, combined with a rustic, western component as well. It is complete with a large master suite, spacious main floor living area and fully finished basement, stunning stone entryways and finishings throughout, beautifully designed kitchen and dining area, large office den, and an oversized attached garage. The stocked pond and nearby alfalfa fields can be viewed from the relaxing elevated porch on the backside of the home. This is an incredible spot for watching the sunrise over a hot cup of coffee in the morning or watching the deer feed in the fields in the early evening.

The property offers some of the finest deer, turkey, and upland bird hunting in the State, first-class accommodations in the gorgeous brick home, the enjoyment of reeling in fish from the stocked pond with family and friends, or even horseback riding across some of the most historical countrysides you will ever find. This property is a must see! Contact the listing agent, Adam Hann, today to schedule your private viewing of this incredible home and acreage.
