With more than a century of family ownership, this exceptional 160± acre Stevens County quarter is being offered to the public. Owned by the same family since 1917 and recognized as a Kansas Century Farm, this property combines dependable CRP income, outstanding wildlife habitat, and a legacy that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Historically farmed in wheat and milo, the property has been continuously enrolled in the USDA Conservation Reserve Program since 1988. The current CRP contract was renewed in 2025 and runs through September 30, 2040, with 158.02 enrolled acres generating approximately $4,425 annually. Combined with annual property taxes of just $70.75, this is an affordable recreational property that produces dependable income while helping offset the cost of ownership.
The established CRP was overseeded in 2021 and is fully compliant with program requirements. An approved USDA wildlife water guzzler further enhances the habitat, creating exceptional cover for wildlife throughout the property.
Hunters will appreciate the outstanding habitat this quarter provides. Fresh deer sign is common throughout the property as whitetails and mule deer travel between the CRP and neighboring irrigated corn, wheat, and milo fields. The unmistakable sound of cackling pheasants echoes across the grass, while coveys of quail flush from the cover. Antelope are also frequently seen in the area, making this an outstanding Southwest Kansas recreational property.
An added bonus is the property's location. It borders a public Walk-In Hunting Access quarter (subject to current Kansas WIHA enrollment), allowing convenient access to additional hunting opportunities nearby. The surrounding area offers numerous WIHA properties, and the Cimarron National Grassland is just a short drive away, providing thousands of additional acres of public hunting and outdoor recreation.
The property features an average NCCPI rating of 41.8, with approximately 80% consisting of Dalhart Loamy Fine Sand, 0-3% slopes, Class III soils. Remnants of an old water well exists on the property, and electricity is available nearby. Access is provided by a two-track along the east side and a lightly maintained county road reaching the northwest corner. The land gently rolls from the higher ground on the south into the flatter cropland along the north, creating natural travel corridors for wildlife.
Properties offering long-term CRP income, exceptionally low carrying costs, outstanding hunting, and over 100 years of family ownership rarely become available. Whether you're searching for an affordable hunting property, a recreational investment, or a legacy farm to pass down for generations, this Stevens County Century Farm deserves your attention.
