Class 1 & 2 Tillable and Recreation Along Slate Creek

Property Description

Located just outside the city limits on the west side of Wellington, Kansas, sits this Class 1 and 2 tillable and recreational farm along Slate Creek. The soil consists of fertile creek bottom varieties with an above-average NCCPI average rating of 62.8. The primary soil type is Class 1 Brewer Silty Clay Loam (70%), and the remainder is made up of Class 2 Milan Loam (13%) and Elandco Silty Clay Loam (11%). The farm lies nicely and has around 28 +/- feet of elevation change throughout the property. Historically, the farm has grown a crop rotation that includes corn, soybeans, wheat, and sorghum. According to FSA, there are 58.2 cropland acres, which make up roughly 75% of the total property.

The land comes with both sides of Slate Creek, and with that comes many recreational opportunities! Big Kansas bucks navigate this creek system every fall and winter, and the mature timber along the creek is a great area for turkeys to roost during the spring. For the angler, the creek offers excellent fishing opportunities for catfish and white bass.

Around 95% of the property is in the 100 year floodplain; however, there are around 3.4 acres in the 500 year floodplain and 0.4 acres entirely out of the floodplain on the northeast corner, which would make for an excellent build site location with paved road access! Mineral rights are intact and will transfer to the buyer.
