Located just west of Emporia, Kansas sits one of the most well-managed upland game farms in the Midwest! This 39-acre tract has deep roots going back to 1889 when the current family first took ownership, and then evolving into the retreat farm it is today.
The 39 acres are made up of 9.87 acres of WHIP, 9.66 acres of CRP, and 20 acres of native hay meadow. The food plots within the strips are currently planted to soybeans and will be left standing for a year-round food source. Past years have been rotated with milo. The active CRP is some of the cleanest ones you will find, with a healthy stand that provides endless cover for wildlife. The hay meadows are pristine with a hearty grass stand with native wildflowers throughout. The rolling hillsides provide perfect waterways that slope to the east. Several plumb thickets have been planted and established along the northern property line pr...

The original 2-story house stands strong and has gained an addition and newer updates over the years. The 4 bedroom, 1 bathroom home provides 1,369 square feet of finished living space and is on rural water. Just outside of the home sits the original washhouse that has now been converted into the laundry house with storage space. Just below is the basement cellar and it's in immaculate shape! The 2 car detached garage has endless workspace, 2 overhead doors, electricity, and concrete floors throughout.
Whether you are on the hunt for the most ideal upland game farm or a prime build site, this 39-acre tract holds it all and is one to tour in person!
