The property features two main ponds situated in the north-central portion of the farm that could be combined into a larger pond with minimal dirt work, along with an additional wet-weather cattle pond on the south end. Behind the carriage house in the northwest corner lies a strong 34 acre block of timber with a defined draw that runs up toward the ponds. This area has consistently produced trail-camera photos of mature whitetail bucks and turkeys. The southern portion of the property contains another 5+ acre block of mixed hardwoods and cedars, offering excellent bedding, roosting, and thermal cover. The southwest-facing timber is ideal for timber stand improvement (TSI) to release crop trees and enhance deer bedding by allowing additional sunlight to reach the forest floor.

A 1,360 square foot carriage house adds significant value and versatility to the property. Built with 2’x6's on 16" centers, this structure includes approximately 710 square feet of garage/shop space on the lower level and 650 square feet of finished living space upstairs. A brand-new roof was installed in Fall 2025, along with siding and door frame repairs. The living area is equipped with an AC floor unit, a propane stove for heat, and a working security system. A rudimentary toilet is in place with everything ready to be fully plumbed, and a water pump system allows water to be brought into and used in the building.

The property is set up with electricity on site, a meter already installed, and a 500-gallon propane tank. All furniture, beds, mini fridge, microwave, AC unit, propane stove, and drinking water system will convey with the sale. The garage portion includes a Craftsman riding mower, assorted farm and shop supplies, and building materials, all of which will also conveyno estate sale required.

Despite active cattle grazing through the spring and early fall, deer, turkeys, and quail have remained consistently present. For a buyer focused on hunting, the pasture could easily be converted to warm-season grasses and shrubs to increase cover, food sources, and privacy, transforming this tract into a highly effective recreational property.

Conveniently located just off I-35, the farm is approximately one hour from Overland Park, 10 miles from Ottawa, and a short drive to both Pomona Lake and Melvern Lake. Whether you’re looking to graze cattle, establish a private family retreat, or develop a true hunting farm, this property checks a lot of hard-to-find boxes.
