Property Description
This 330 +/- acre property is located in Butler County, just north of El Dorado, Kansas, and offers an exceptional mix of productive farmland and premier recreational habitat. The farm features approximately 141 +/- cropland acres actively in production, primarily consisting of Class II Verdigris silt loam soils. These tillable acres have gentle 1–3% slopes, well-maintained fields, and carry an impressive overall weighted NCCPI of 77. The property also includes 141 +/- DCP crop base acres with an ARC County election.
The remaining 187 +/- acres are comprised of warm-season native grass meadows and mature hardwood timber bottoms. The native grass includes a strong mix of little bluestem, big bluestem, and Indiangrass, while the timber is highlighted by towering oak, walnut, cottonwood, and eastern red cedar. The West Branch of the Walnut River winds through the property, providing year-round water and an excellent natural travel corridor for wildlife.
One of the standout features is the 2 +/- acre rock quarry pond, stocked with largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. Multiple additional watering ponds are also located on the property.
With abundant food sources, cover, and water, this diverse landscape creates outstanding habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, upland birds, and waterfowl. The farm is located in Kansas Deer Management Unit 15 and supports excellent deer numbers. Waterfowl frequently utilize both the river and the quarry pond throughout the season.
The property would also make an excellent building site, situated on a hard-surface blacktop road with electricity and fiber optic cable at the road and rural water nearby. Mineral rights are intact and will transfer to the buyer at closing. There are currently no active leases or tenant rights in place.
This premier hunting and recreational property truly offers it all — productive tillable income, native grass, mature timber, river frontage, a stocked quarry pond, and exceptional hunting and fishing opportunities.
Showings are by appointment only, and an agent must be present to enter the property. Contact Trent Siegle at (620) 767-2926 for additional information, disclosures, trail camera photos, or to schedule a showing.
