Located 1 mile west of Herington Lake (new) in Hope, Kansas sits this well-rounded recreational property! This farm checks all of the boxes for the outdoorsmen who enjoy chasing ducks, bucks, and upland game birds. There are currently 52 +/- acres enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program. These enrolled acres offer an annual payment of $2,744 and ideal habitat for upland game birds and whitetail deer. The south side of the property is native grass pasture that has historically been utilized for livestock grazing. This portion of the ground has a spring-fed timber-lined creek which is a magnet for the big Kansas whitetail bucks in the area. The spring-fed creek feeds into an 8 +/- acre slough on the northeastern part of the property. The skinny water creek coupled with the low-lying marshy habitat presents a tremendous opportunity to harvest waterfowl in the heart of the Central Flyway. Herington Lake(s) offer two separate lakes consisting of 555 acres and 367 acres both of which are within 4 miles of this property. These lakes offer electric pedestals for RV camping, boating, fishing, and hunting opportunities. This property is currently enrolled in walk-in hunting through KDWP and can be taken out of the program upon closing. Mineral rights are believed to be intact and will transfer with the land to the buyer. There are options for a smaller acreage purchase. A survey will be required to break the proposed parcel off from the existing one. For questions or to schedule a time to view the property contact the listing agent Shaun Reid.
