Planter Rd N of 2nd, LeRoy, KS 66857

On behalf of the Eugene N. Sutherland Living Trust, we proudly present 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 1 totals 160 acres more or less and especially for the hunter, is ideally located on a dead-end road, lending to privacy and seclusion. This tract is being offered both individually and in combination with adjoining Tract 2 with the properties selling in whichever form garners the most proceeds. This tract features quality cropland, native grass meadow, sections of heavy timber, multiple water sources, timbered draws and waterways and an interior of the property that's not easily seen from the boundaries due to hedgerows and creek drainages. There is a rural water line running to the west side of the property although the new owner would need to purchase a water meter.    There's approximately 88 acres of cropland on this tract with the soil types within the crop portion being composed of desirable Woodson silt loam, Dennis silt loam and Kenoma silt loam. The hayable areas total approximately 30 acres and are made up of resilient native grass varieties highlighted by Big Bluestem, Indian Grass and Switchgrass. These are the types that make excellent bedding cover for the resident wildlife as well as have excellent drought resistance with an ability to thrive when tame grasses falter.    Located in the legendary Kansas Deer Management Unit #11, this is a tract with a substantial resident wildlife population already but also has tremendous upside with the addition of foodplots and feeders. Due to there only being one named road bordering the property, the privacy for both humans and wildlife is exceptional. You won't have to worry much about prying eyes watching the deer and turkeys within the interior of the property and the line of sight from the road is severely restricted due to the heavily rolling terrain.    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 9:00 a.m. for Tract 1. This features a dynamic closing which means that any bidding in the last 3 minutes will extend the closing by 3 minutes.
