Flint Hills Ranch and Hay

Property Description

This 157 +/- acre property in Morris County, Kansas, offers a balanced mix of hay ground, pasture, and established improvements in a quiet rural setting. Approximately half of the acreage is in hay ground, with the remainder in pasture. All of the grass is a mix of both cool-season and warm-season native. The fencing on the pasture is adequate but aged. Two nice ponds exist: one in the hay meadow and a larger pond in the pasture. Possession of the grass will be immediate.

For improvements, there is a 1930-built, 1,036 square foot home with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. A metal roof was installed in 2014, but there is work to be done inside the home. A pipe burst in the last few years, and although the problem was addressed, the project was never completed. The home is being sold as is. The property is served by a private well, septic system, and includes a Generac generator for backup power. There are two outbuildings adjacent to the house. A 32’x50’ utility building with electricity and a dirt floor has sliding doors and provides ample covered storage space. There is an original barn that was added onto and repurposed that has been used as a stable for horses for the last 40 years. Steel pipe corrals can be found next to the older barn, and there is a freeze-proof waterer served by the well.

Located on a low-traffic road with blacktop access approximately one mile away, this property offers a combination of usable grass, hay production, and existing improvements for someone looking to expand a cattle operation, maintain a small farm, or enjoy a manageable piece of the Flint Hills. The property is 15 minutes from Herington, 15 minutes from White City, and 45 minutes from Junction City.
