Broker’s Notes: Northern Flint Hills, Pottawatomie County, pasture for sale. This listing features 714 +/- acres of pasture land located just 13 miles northeast of Manhattan, KS 1 mile off Highway 13 on Bigelow Road, right in the famed Kansas Flint Hills. The pasture feature native grass with an abundance of water. Flowing springs on the south half of this property provide a fresh water source that will assist young calves add those extra pounds putting more money in the producers’ pockets come sale time. The north half has 2 large ponds and make it possible for producers to practice an aggressive cross fencing program to hit peak efficiency during grazing season
The pasture was lush last summer when I originally toured the property and it was obvious that it has been well cared for by the current owner and tenants. The fencing on this property l features 5 strand, barbed wire fence, and is pulled tight to posts throughout and was built with quality and pride. There is also an area with a working pen on the west that will help make loading, unloading and sorting easier. The sellers have owned this property for decades and it was originally purchased so they could summer their cattle 2 ½ hours east of there operation headquarters and in more recent years the tenant, also located 2 ½ hours west has benefitted from the excellent grass and rainfall of the northern flint hills.
EASY access from all direction on an EXCELLENT rock road just 1 mile off Kansas State Highway K13 make this property a rare gem in what many consider the most PRIME grazing area in the state. Be sure to check out all the nice homes nearby. With the rapid growth in nearby Manhattan, home of the KSU Wildcats, don’t overlook the possibilities for development of this property. Ask any real agent professional what the #1 property request they get is and you’re sure to hear…Rural properties for building with 20 +/- acres.
The beauty of this property is something you truly need to see for yourself.
