Hunting and Recreation with Build Site Close to Kansas City

Property Description

Tucked high in the hills on a dead-end road in Ray County, Missouri, this 40 +/- acres is an outstanding hunting property and build site with a stunning view overlooking the Missouri River bottoms, where you can see all the way to the skyline of Kansas City. These 40 +/- acres consists of 25 acres of mature timber, 6 acres of dense grass and wildlife bedding area, 9 acres of grassland cut for hay, and a wet weather creek. Located just across the Clay County line and a few miles from Excelsior Springs, this property is located near shopping and conveniences in town and an easy drive to the Kansas City area.

There is a drive entrance to the property on the northeast corner that leads to a trail system that runs along the east boundary and crosses the creek to access the west side of the property. The trail provides excellent access from a UTV, by foot to stand locations, and overall hiking and recreation use. Large timbered bluffs and rock outcroppings overlook the wet weather creek. This area will be home to several morels this Spring! The dense grassland west of the timber serves as a bedding and nesting area for wildlife, centrally located on the property. This allows a whitetail hunter to strategically access stand and blind locations, considering the wind and bedding area, and create food sources around the bedding area, all on the property. The picturesque grassland has been previously cut for hay production, but would also make for an excellent build site or food plot location.

This property is a great location, only ¼ mile from blacktop Hwy access, but secluded at the end of a dead-end road. It is loaded with whitetail and turkey and will make a great hunting and recreational property close to Kansas City, but also allows an opportunity for a build site if a new owner desires, with utilities at the road and located in the reputable Orrick School District.
