Description

In the quiet open prairies of the Flint Hills in southern Kansas lies this continuous 627 +/- acre ranch that has been kept in pristine condition, well put together, and has everything that a ranch needs for your cattle operation including the 3-bed 2-bath home, multiple shops, and ag buildings, 2 sets of corrals and plentiful native prairie grass and brome fields covering the landscape. Entering the property will bring you to the move-in ready 2,200 square foot 3-bed 2-bath home built in 2008 that has an additional 432 square foot basement. This home has an open floor plan with a large living room and kitchen space, a master bed/bath, 2 similar bedrooms, and a mudroom towards the back. The concrete floors make this ranch home easier to maintain and keep clean after a long days work in the field! The open patio off the back makes a great location to enjoy the evenings with family or friends while sitting around the outdoor fireplace made from native Silverdale Stone. Coming to the first of multiple improvements is the 60x30 Morton Building shop to keep your tools/equipment. Next to the shop is a 60'x30' haybarn alongside a 72x24 loafing shed that was built within the last 2 years which sits over the well-constructed set of corrals. Walking through the open driveways will let you know that there is plenty of turnaround space giving ample amount of room for semis to pull in/out and space to work. A 12'x30' shed is in the middle of the improvements right next to a 50x30 horse barn with a tack room which has been used as an equipment building. Finishing the improvements is the recently constructed 60x80 red iron hay barn. The main part of the ranch is just shy of a section at 313 +/- acres that has 3 traps behind the house, cross-fenced, 9 ponds, and approximately 55 +/- acres of brome that the seller grazes and bales with the rest of ground being in native prairie grass. Directly to the east lies one of the two sections that house a 28x58 hay barn, 3 ponds, cross-fenced and 22 +/- acres total of brome fields that have produced 3-3.5 bales an acre without grazing and around 2 bales an acre while grazing. The section that sits to the north and has a set of newer corrals, 3 ponds, cross-fenced at the 80s, and 75 +/- acres of brome that have produced 3-3.5 bales an acre without grazing and around 1.5-2 bales an acre while grazing. Multiple and continuous improvements have been made to keep this ranch in great working condition including 85% of the fencing and gates being replaced or updated over the years, adding electricity/water to the corrals which have two 4-hole waterers and two 2-hole waterers along with expanding and improving the corrals. A majority (11) of the ponds have been dug out over the years to expand their volume which can be illustrated by looking at the pictures. Whether you are wanting to expand your cattle operation or start out fresh in an area with lush native prairie grass with additional brome fields that can be used as a cow/calf operation or to run stockers during the growing season, this is truly one that needs to be seen in person, has it all and would be ready for your cattle, family, or ranch hand on day one.
