3,236 Acres in Elk County, Longton, Kansas

At +/-3236 contiguous acres and with over 3 miles of Elk River frontage, this property is one of the premier ranches in Kansas.  Combine the recreation opportunities that abound around every corner of this ranch with the working cattle operation and the +/-409 acres of tillable crop land and you have a property that can be used and enjoyed any number of ways. It’s a truly magnificent ranch with a new adventure around every turn. Land This property is so diverse and has everything an eastern Kansas sportsman could ask for. Starting on the north end, the property has Elk River frontage that divides areas of production farm ground and cuts through planted food plots, with old, massive cottonwood trees guarding the riverbanks and assorted oak trees, sycamores, elm trees, osage orange, cedars and other tree species coming together to form dense timber pockets that show obvious deer travel corridor paths that have been beat down for generations. Look and listen closely and the northern side of the ranch will share some of its history with you. There is an old, abandoned iron bridge whose remnants make its way over the Elk River and an old barn whose wood has seen the hard work of generations making their way on this land. Native American arrow heads and other artifacts have also been found along the river. Moving south, the land begins to slowly gain elevation and the tillable farmland becomes intertwined between patches of native grass and timber surrounds. Everywhere you look seems to be another perfect bedding area or feeding area. More large trees run through the middle of the property following tributary creek beds which help to feed any one of the 20 or more ponds on the property. Again, you can not look in any direction and not see exceptional habitat co-designed by nature and the human caretakers of this incredible parcel. In this region of the ranch, the hills begin to steepen and are covered with blackjack oaks. Deer run these hillsides and the ravines are full of rubs, scrapes and more pathways that give up the secrets of their travel corridors. The south end of the ranch has more open pasture and sits at some of the highest elevations, although the deep draws continue to hold timber and ponds. The fencing throughout the property is good and this area is cross fenced into 3 separate pastures and is set up for good rotation. It also has some beautiful limestone rock formations and natural springs. This ranch has so much to offer, you need to spend a good portion of a day exploring on and off the maintained trail system that winds up, down, around and through the property. Improvements The Home Situated at the end of a scenic 1.45-mile-long driveway that leads you past the highest point on the ranch, this home features a total of 4512 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths spread throughout a main floor and finished walk-out basement.…
