Gunkle Family Trust - Tract 8

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 8 is located directly north across the road from Tracts 5 and 6 and is an affordable sized tract for the recreational buyer at 21 acres more or less but don’t let the size fool you. This parcel is a tremendous prospect that features a diverse mix of Cottonwood River frontage, super thick timber, Riparian strips and a high percentage of Ivan silt loam soils. It will also hunt bigger than the acreage suggests with good stand locations on the west side of the river and two great options on the east side with one near the river and on one that should be great near the east boundary.

The soils are almost entirely made up of excellent Ivan silt loam with a small amount of Class 1 Reading silt loam as well. Farm it or hunt it, you should like this small but mighty tract! 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.
