The whitetail habitat on this farm in Central Kansas is simply perfect for holding and attracting trophy whitetail bucks year after year. There are 3 large blocks of timber on the property that are loaded with deer sign and also provide excellent treestand setups for the avid archery hunter. Food plots, tower blinds and wildlife feeders set up along each timber line making this a turn-key hunting experience for the new owner. The landscape canvasing the remainder of the property is highlighted by tall grass blends, large spreads of plumb thickets, scattered cedars and hardwoods. The north portion of the property features a large pond surrounded by timber and all set up with a waterfowl shooting blind. This has proven to be an absolute hot spot for ducks during season. The large cottonwood trees throughout the farm are ideal roosting trees for turkeys and the farm provides tremendous upland bird hunting for the wing shooter at heart. This area of the county has a resident elk herd and they have frequented this 312-acre farm for the last few years. The elk sign on this farm is something special, certainly not what you find on the average Kansas farm. This property also features a producing oil well in recent years, the seller will convey 50% of his mineral rights upon the date of closing. An active CRP contract is in place until 2030, paying $8,204 annually. In this part of the state, it is difficult enough to find a farm of this size that offers trophy whitetail hunting, waterfowl, and good upland and turkey populations. This property offers all of the above, as well as the potential for trophy elk while being completely turnkey and ready to hunt day 1.

TRACT 1 232.16 ACRES

When searching for the perfect hunting farm in Kansas most buyers would think big whitetail deer and turkeys. This particular farm does all that and more considering the waterfowl and elk hunting opportunities it provides. As you pull into the farm from the west you will quickly notice a massive block of timber providing ideal bedding and staging area for whitetails. A stationary blind, feeder, and food plot are positioned along the east edge of the timber creating a picture perfect Stafford County setup. The biggest wow factor on this farm is definitely the lake, this lake is nearly 4 acres when full and provides some of the best waterfowl hunting you will find in this portion of the state. This lake is surrounded by mature cottonwood trees and has a stationary waterfowl shooting blind. This water hole also is a dynamite whitetail setup considering the dry summers we’ve had. Mature CRP and plumb thickets make up the remaining acreage on the farm. Some of the best habitat in my opinion is the grass and thickets, nearly the whole farm is considered a bedding area. A resident elk herd exists on the farm. Be sure to look at the recent elk pictures. Imagine sitting in your deer stand and hearing a bull bugling across the farm! Talk about chills down your spine The annual CRP payment will be $6,345 which is in place until 2030. 50% of the seller’s mineral rights will convey with this sale. One oil well exists but production at this time is halted. Blacktop road frontage along the entire north boundary also makes this farm an ideal spot to build a home or lodge.
