On behalf of the Harold Woerz Revocable Trust, L2 Realty introduces an exceptional opportunity to invest in native Flint Hills pasture, creek timber, and tillable acreage in Marion County, Kansas. Near the Marion and Florence communities, these three parcels encompass approximately 394.6 +/- total acres. This multi-parcel auction presents an excellent land investment opportunity in the famed Flint Hills of Kansas!
Tract 1: This is the hunting gem of the three parcels! 78.4 +/- acres of Martin Creek timber and native warm season grasses. White-tailed deer and Eastern turkey are present on this property throughout most of the year. The creek holds water year-round plus there is also a great producing solar water well in the northern pasture portion of the property. This tract will surely have excellent rut hunting for archery hunters in November. Fully fenced, livestock can be grazed on this parcel if desired. If cattle grazing isn’t your thing, the native grass can be allowed to grow tall and thick providing additional bedding cover for deer. Several areas along the creek have fertile, Class 1 Reading silt loam soils that could be converted into food plots to further improve the wildlife habitat. S13, T20, R04, Acres 78.4, N/2 Ne/4 Less Row Tax: $405 for 2023
Tract 2: This is the true Flint Hills grazing parcel of the three! Native warm-season grasses are present across the entire 158.8-acre quarter section. Water sources for livestock include a ¾-acre pond on the northeast corner, live creek on the northwest corner, and a shared solar water well on the east property boundary. In the southwest corner, old working pens are still intact along with limestone barn structures from centuries past. Perimeter fencing is present on the entire parcel and cattle have been summer grazed historically. Not to be ignored, the northwest corner has roughly 15 acres of mixed creek timber that will provide deer and turkey hunting opportunities once cattle are pulled off. S06, T20, R05, Acres 158.8, Sw/4 Less Row Tax: $622 for 2023
Tract 3: Grass pasture and tillable acreage make this a nice mixed use quarter section! Native warm-season grasses are present on roughly 97 fenced acres of the 157.4 total acres on this parcel. With a ½-acre pond and a windmill-powered well, water sources are plentiful for livestock. The remaining 60 acres are currently in smooth brome used for hay production but could be planted to row crops like soybeans, milo, corn, or wheat. This portion of the property is composed of Class 3 Irwin silty clay loam and a small amount of Labette silty clay loam. These same soils are present on an additional 45-50 acres in the pasture providing the opportunity to break out more crop production acreage if so desired. S05, T20, R05, Acres 157.42, Se/4 Less Row Tax: $689 for 2023
