Timber Rd & 160th St, Marion, KS 66861

We are honored to represent the Calvert Family Partnership with the offering of these ultra-productive and efficient cropland parcels situated on the Cottonwood River in Marion County, Kansas located just south of Marion via online auction. This is the auction that both the discerning farmer and investor have been awaiting. There's no excuse to sit on the sideline here if you're searching for top-shelf riverbottom tillable with premium soils. If you're going to buy farmland, you might as well buy the best, as opportunities of this magnitude don't present themselves often. Answer the door as opportunity is knocking loud and clear! The auction will start at 12:00 p.m. on 10/2/24 and end on 10/4/24 with a dynamic closing beginning at 11:00 a.m. on Tract 1, 1:00 p.m. on Tract 2, and 4:00 p.m. on Tract 3.    Tract 3 is a combination of Tracts 1 & 2 and totals 393 acres, more or less, including top-shelf soils, good drainage and Cottonwood River frontage. This real estate is being offered in two individual tracts and in combination (Tract 3) and will sell in whichever form garners the most proceeds. Boasting 358.03 cropland acres according to FSA records, this ultra-productive parcel is light on waste other than the timber along the river and creek drainage. The premium soil types are overwhelmingly composed of Verdigris and Chase varieties that often produce during stressful periods while others fail. Please find the soil map and FSA map in the "Related Documents" section within this listing on our website. If you're shopping for a large, efficient farm with high-quality soil types, you'll be hard pressed to match this one.    As stated in the Tract 2 description, there is added attraction if you are an investor who also enjoys recreational pursuits as well. Pass-shooting waterfowl on the Cottonwood River is often very productive and the heavy hardwood timber lining the river and adjacent creek drainage has created a textbook travel corridor for the Whitetails in the area. This tract would make an excellent addition to the portfolio with ROI and likely continued appreciation over the years.    This parcel has excellent access with pavement frontage on the west boundary and a well-maintained County road on the east, allowing for convenient drives to multiple grain markets at Marion and Hillsboro amongst others.    If you are an investor and need a farmer to operate it, the current farmer has provided tremendous care and stewardship for the property for over 20 years. He is an excellent  operator and has expressed a strong desire to keep renting the property if the new owner would like to discuss. If you have been waiting to spend your money on high-quality cropland, this could very well be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy this incredible parcel! It's time to act. Give us a call to setup a tour or for more information.    Tract 1 is being offered both individually as well with theadjoining Tract 2 with the property selling in whichever formatgarners the most proceeds. We will take the high bid for Tract 1 and Tract 2 and total those numbers. We will then add a $50,000.00 escalator which is where the bidding for Tract 3 will begin.
