On behalf of the Eugene N. Sutherland Living Trust, Vaughn-Roth Land Brokers proudly presents this rare blend of cropland, native grass and top-shelf hunting properties for your consideration. There’s a total of 5 tracts with at least one to fit every buyer type, whether it be the grain producer, cattle operator or the recreational buyer searching for a secluded getaway to pursue whitetail and turkeys. The 5 tracts are all approximately 160 acres each and there are three tracts that are contiguous, allowing you to purchase up to 480 acres all together should you desire. This beautiful and diverse offering possesses inherent attributes throughout the properties that make it very unique which is easily evident upon inspection. This property is being offered via online auction that will start at Noon on November 12th and will begin closing at Noon on November 14th. This auction will feature a dynamic closing which means any bids placed in the last 3 minutes will extend the auction for another 3 minutes. Tract 2 is located directly adjacent to the east of Tract 1, totaling 160+/- acres. This tract is being offered both individually and in combination with adjoining Tract 1 with the properties selling in whichever form garners the most proceeds. Being very similar to its neighbor but with a higher percentage of cropland, this parcel boasts quality soils, native grass meadow, pockets and waterways with hardwoods. Also like Tract 1, this parcel has only one maintained road to access it which dead-ends at the southeast corner, lending to seclusion and a lack of prying eyes from the public. There is an unmaintained two-tract road that runs along the east boundary that could be conveniently used to gain concealed entry to stands and blinds. There’s approximately 100 acres of cropland on this tract with the soil types within this section being 100% composed of the good upland varieties of Dennis silt loam and Woodson silt loam. Total acres in hay production is approximately 18 acres. These hay meadow portions are situated in multiple secluded pockets along the south boundary and in the northwest corner. You really couldn’t ask for better native grass bedding areas due to privacy and proximity to heavy timber, food and water. Kansas Deer Management Unit #11 in which this tract resides is an often-envied and consistent producing unit that produces big Kansas whitetails year after year. The owner of the property isn’t a deer hunter and there’s excellent potential here for someone who wants to implement a deer management program. The attributes it possesses with the mix of timber, crops, native grass and quiet surroundings makes it stand above your average Kansas hunting property. Come see for yourself and we think you’ll agree! For those wanting some return on investment, there has been a long-time tillable and hay tenant on the property who would desire to keep renting it if the new owner has any interest in continuing this.This auction will begin on 11/12/2024 at 12:00 p.m. with staggered dynamic closings to begin on 11/14/2024 at 11:00 a.m. for Tract 2.  This features a dynamic closing which means that any bidding in the last 3 minutes will extend the closing by 3 minutes.
