For the agricultural producer, this farm offers lots of opportunity as well with both cropland and native grass pasture located on the property. This tract is located near the Verdigris River and includes tillable acreage for the ag producer. Cropland on the property is composed of roughly 65% bottomland soils and 35% upland soils. Bottomland crop soils are of good quality, being composed of approximately 70% Reading Silt Loam class I soils and 30% Ivan Silt Loam class II soils. Upland crop soils are of average quality and are composed of class II Dennis Silt Loam soils. FSA records indicate 76.56-acres of cropland on this property, however, crop acreage appears to map closer to 70-acres based on our mapping software. Fertilizer has already been applied over the winter months offering a great headstart to the new owner (5.9 Tons of Potash, 6.1 Tons of DAP, 700lbs of Sulfur, and 490lbs of Zinc). Bottomland cropland in the Verdigris River Valley rarely hits the open market (this farm has been in the same family since 1857) so don’t miss out on an exceptional opportunity to invest in tillable land. Land located north of the highway on the property is composed of true native grass pasture that has been utilized for grazing livestock with the property being fully fenced.
In addition to the agricultural and hunting opportunities the tract provides, it also features a build site with a home, garage, newer shed/shop, and barn with blacktop frontage. The home on the property includes roughly 1600sf of living space and is an older 2-story home with 4-bedrooms, 1-bathroom, a living room, dining room, and kitchen. The home was repainted and had a new roof put on in the past few years. The home is on rural water and has access to fiber internet. The property additionally includes a newer 1200sf shed with concrete floor and electrical service for storing vehicles, side by sides, stands, feeders, fishing poles, etc. If you have been looking for a home in the country this property offers an existing home or potential for adding a newer dwelling overlooking the Verdigris River Valley.
