00000 255th Street, Hamilton, KS 66853 - Greenwood County

Located in the open Flint Hills, this long time family-owned farm is just 4 miles west of Hamilton, Kansas off of Highway 99. Turning out or pulling off cattle rain or shine will never be an issue here with multiple entrances with cattle guard and the well-maintained county road. The 156 +/- acre property is made up of 141 +/- acres of prime native bluestem grazing grass and 17 +/- acres of timber and creek.

The timber stand is complete with locust, osage orange, elm, and black walnut and the always running Homer Creek carves a path through it, providing an excellent secondary water source for the property, and has several deep pool spots along the way through the property. There are four ponds throughout. The 5-strand perimeter fencing is in average to above average condition, with no need for replacing or repairs.

The annual grazing lease rent is $4,000. The property has also been leased in previous years for hunting with great success. Several mature whitetails have been harvested on the property, with deer signs throughout the timber, southwest pasture, and along the creek. The hunting lease pays $2,000 annually. There is one oil well currently in production with Gaffney Oil. The surface rights remain intact and will be transferred to the buyer. This 158 +/- acre tract that sits in cattleman’s county provides, not only some of the best livestock grazing, but an opportunity to have a great return on investment with additional income.
