This offering presents a rare and versatile opportunity to acquire high-quality irrigated farmland, a well-improved rural acreage, or both together in one cohesive location. Whether you are looking to purchase your first piece of farmland, expand an existing agricultural operation, or establish a country residence with productive farm ground nearby, this property delivers flexibility, productivity, and long-term value. Located just outside Clarks, Nebraska, the property features excellent access, strong irrigation infrastructure, and proximity to major grain marketing outlets, making it well suited for a wide range of buyers and operational goals.

The property is offered in two tracts that may be purchased individually or together, allowing buyers to tailor the acquisition to their specific needs. Tract 1 consists of a well-maintained acreage with a residence and outbuildings, while Tract 2 includes highly productive irrigated cropland supported by a modern pivot system and multiple wells. Together, these tracts create an exceptional opportunity to own both a comfortable rural headquarters and a productive farm unit in one location.

Tract 1 is the acreage portion of the offering and is priced at $325,000. According to the county assessor, this tract consists of approximately 3 total acres and is legally described as part of the West Half of the Northeast Quarter of Section 9, Township 15 North, Range 4 West. The property address is 2774 Z Road, Clarks, Nebraska 68628. Property taxes for 2025 are to be determined.

The acreage features a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offering approximately 1,028 square feet of living space. This residence provides a comfortable and practical layout well suited for country living, a farm headquarters, or a rental opportunity. Recent updates have been completed, enhancing both functionality and long-term durability. A new septic system was installed in 2022, providing peace of mind for the next owner. In 2024, the roof and propane tank were replaced, and in 2025, new windows and window shades were installed, improving energy efficiency and overall comfort.

In addition to the home, the acreage includes a spacious approximately 50-foot by 70-foot machine shed. This building provides ample room for equipment storage, shop space, or farm operations. The shed is equipped with both 24-foot and 14-foot overhead doors with openers, allowing easy access for larger machinery. Also included on the acreage is a grain bin with an approximate capacity of 14,000 bushels, offering valuable on-site storage for grain produced on the adjoining farm ground or nearby acres.

The acreage is well suited for a variety of uses. For owner-operators, it offers the convenience of living adjacent to the farm, reducing travel time and improving operational efficiency. For buyers seeking country living, the property provides a quiet rural setting with the added benefit of income-producing farmland nearby. Investors may also find value in the improvements and rental potential of the home and outbuildings.

Tract 2 is the irrigated farm ground and is offered at a price of $725,000. According to the county assessor, this tract consists of 72.12 total acres, with approximately 71.20 acres classified as irrigated and 0.92 acres classified as other. The farm ground is legally described as part of the West Half of the Northeast Quarter of Section 9, Township 15 North, Range 4 West. Property taxes for 2025 are estimated at $4,295.22.

This tract is a highly productive irrigated parcel ideally suited for row crop production. The farm is located in a strong agricultural area with excellent access to blacktop roads, making it easy to move equipment, inputs, and harvested grain. Its proximity to multiple ethanol plants and grain elevators provides strong marketing options and logistical efficiency, which is especially valuable during harvest and periods of high commodity movement.

The farm is located within the Central Platte Natural Resources District and has certified irrigation rights for 71.20 acres. Certified irrigation is a key component of long-term land value and operational security, ensuring recognized and regulated water use under established guidelines.

Irrigation infrastructure on the property is a major strength. The farm is equipped with a 2012 Zimmatic seven-tower center pivot rated at approximately 400 gallons per minute. This pivot system is supported by four irrigation wells, providing reliable water supply and redundancy.

Well G-171950 was drilled on April 30, 2014, and is rated at approximately 400 gallons per minute with a pumping level of 44 feet and a well depth of 50 feet. Well G-098913 was drilled on December 30, 1998, and provides approximately 600 gallons per minute with a pumping level of 40 feet and a well depth of 50 feet. Well G-098914, also drilled on December 30, 1998, is rated at approximately 600 gallons per minute with a pumping level of 40 feet and a well depth of 51 feet. Well G-098912, drilled the same day, provides approximately 500 gallons per minute with a pumping level of 45 feet and a well depth of 49 feet. Together, these wells provide strong water capacity to support consistent irrigation throughout the growing season.

The combination of a modern pivot system and multiple wells ensures reliable performance and flexibility in water management. This setup allows operators to maintain crop health during dry periods and optimize yields during key growth stages.

FSA records for Tract 2 indicate total cropland acres of 71.17. The farm includes 70.8 base acres of corn with a PLC yield of 143, reflecting solid production potential and eligibility for federal farm program participation. The strong emphasis on corn base acres aligns well with the propertys location near ethanol plants and grain markets, enhancing marketing opportunities and reducing transportation costs.

The soils on the farm are productive and well suited for irrigated row crop production. When combined with reliable irrigation, these soils provide the foundation for consistent yields and long-term sustainability. The nearly fully irrigated nature of the tract maximizes productive acres and supports efficient use of inputs.

One of the most compelling aspects of this offering is the ability to purchase both tracts together. Owning the acreage and farm ground as a single unit creates a seamless setup for a family farm, a growing operation, or a buyer seeking to combine lifestyle and agriculture. Living adjacent to the farm improves day-to-day efficiency, allows for close monitoring of crops and irrigation, and enhances overall quality of life.

For first-time farmland buyers, this property offers a manageable entry point into land ownership with high-quality infrastructure already in place. For established producers, it represents an opportunity to add irrigated acres in a desirable location with strong water resources. Investors may also recognize the long-term value of irrigated land paired with residential improvements in a region with stable agricultural demand.

There are no current leases on either tract, allowing the buyer immediate flexibility in planning operations, occupancy, or future leasing arrangements. This clean slate adds to the appeal of the property and simplifies the transition for new ownership.

All mineral rights owned by the seller, if any, will convey to the buyer at closing. While mineral production is not guaranteed, ownership of mineral rights provides potential upside and long-term control of subsurface interests.

In summary, this offering combines high-quality irrigated farmland, excellent irrigation infrastructure, strong access, and a well-improved rural acreage in one exceptional package. Whether purchased individually or together, these tracts provide versatility, productivity, and long-term value. Opportunities to acquire both productive farm ground and a functional country headquarters in such close proximity are increasingly rare, making this property worthy of serious consideration by a wide range of buyers.
