Property Description

Vaughn-Roth Land Brokers is proud to present this premium Neosho and Cottonwood River Valley cropland located just east of Emporia, Kansas to the public on behalf of The Gunkle Family Trust. Land of this quality is rarely offered to the public in this area and opportunity is knocking for those who want to expand their farming operation, add investment-grade cropland to their portfolio or purchase a unique recreational tract with river frontage and mature hardwood timber. This property has been in the same family for decades but the page is turning to the next chapter. This could be the only chance of your lifetime to acquire these tracts so come to the auction prepared to buy! The properties are being offered in seven separate tracts or combinations thereof.

This land will be offered via live auction to be held at Champions Landing (the former Emporia Country Club) located at 1801 Rural St. on September 24^th, 2025 at 7:00 P.M. There will be an online option as well for those of you who would like to bid remotely or put in early bids.

Please note that there have been excellent long-time farm tenants on these tracts who desire the opportunity to continue renting them in the event the successful buyer needs a tenant.

Tract 9 is the one that is all business for the grain producer as it boasts a high percentage of tillable with practically no trees to contend with. You’ll also like the fertile soils and excellent location! There’s approximately 165 acres currently in crop production with the balance being in waterways and low depressions. The overwhelming majority soil type is desirable Class 2 Chase silty clay loam with a minor influence of Osage, Kenoma and Class 1 Reading varieties. For your convenience and confidence, you will find a copy of the soil map in the “Related Documents” section within this listing on our website.

Farmers will also enjoy some long rows without much interference as this tract is right at 3/4 of a mile long from north to south and the location is excellent with the pavement of Old Highway 50 along the north boundary and excellent County road along a portion of the east side. It’s less than 3 miles to Emporia and other grain market options in the area are an easy commute. For the farmer who wants to add to their operation without the peripheral distraction of a hunting property, here’s your opportunity!
