Owned by the same family for over 30 years and never hunted, this land has been carefully preserved as a private retreat. With diverse terrain, natural water sources, and incredible habitat, it’s a true rare opportunity for hunters, investors, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
The land features approximately 70+/- acres of tillable ground with productive soils suitable for row crops or large-scale food plots. Around 73+/- acres are covered in mature timber, providing excellent whitetail habitat with natural funnels, bedding cover, and significant elevation changes. An additional 20+/- acres of overgrown grassland that could easily be converted into more tillable, hay production, bedding areas, or enhanced wildlife habitat. There's also a 10+/- acre pecan grove offering both wildlife attraction and potential income.
Water features are abundant and include nearly a mile of Neosho River frontage and over 1.2 miles of Town Creek winding through the timber. This creek has created dramatic elevation changes, scenic bluffs, and multiple natural pinch points that make for outstanding stand locations. A spring-fed pond tucked deep in the timber has the potential to become a uniqe secluded mallard hole. In the south crop field, low-lying areas already collect sheet water and have proven attractive to ducks and geese. With minimal dirt work, this could be developed into a premier duck impoundment, conveniently located near the river for easy water management. There’s also a former crop field just east of the cemetery that would be an ideal location for a large food plot or wetland restoration project.
The property includes a well-maintained 2,000 sq. ft. home that’s perfect as a primary residence or a hunting lodge, along with multiple outbuildings and a concrete-floored dog pen. Access is easy yet private, with the property located at the end of a dead-end road. Southern access is also available via the nearby cemetery road, offering flexibility for entry and hunting setups without disturbing key areas.
What truly sets this property apart is not just what it offers but how untouched it is. The current owner has never allowed hunting, meaning the wildlife is plentiful and unpressured. From towering timber ridges to creek-bottom travel corridors, the natural layout of the land is ideal for whitetail and turkey movement. Add in the exceptional white bass fishing during seasonal flows, and you have a four-season recreational gem.
Whether you're a hunter, fisherman, investor, or simply looking for a peaceful rural getaway, this farm offers a rare mix of seclusion, beauty, and potential. With it's diversity of habitat, water features, and strategic layout, it stands out as one of the most saught after recreational tracts in the area. Properties with this kind of character, seclusion, and potential are few and far between! Dont miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind farm! Contact me with any interest
