We are honored to represent the James M. Warren Trust with the auction of 1,300 +/- acres of Wabaunsee County excellence that is being offered in 11 tracts or combinations thereof. Situated near the eastern edge of the iconic Flint Hills eco-region, these properties each possess unique and inherent attributes that will appeal to diverse buyer types, whether you're a beef producer, farmer, hunter, investor or are ready to build your forever home. These tracts are all located east and south of Eskridge, Kansas which is a beautiful rural area far away from the noise of the city but close enough to access the amenities of larger locales if needed. Topeka is approximately 25 miles to the northeast, Emporia is 35 miles south and the great town of Manhattan is approximately 44 miles to the northwest. These parcels have all been in the same family for decades and have an excellent reputation for both production and recreational characteristics. For the livestock producer, the pasture tracts are all reputable parcels with many having substantial natural springs, water wells and ponds for water sources. There's good options here for the grain producer as well in this auction and there's multiple first-class choices here for the deer and waterfowl hunters. The page is is turning to the next chapter and opportunity is knocking to add quality to your operation or portfolio. For those who would need an agricultural tenant, there is a long-time tenant who would be interested in continuing to lease the properties if possible.

The live auction will be held on February 11th at 6:00 PM at Champions Landing with a physical address of 1801 Rural St, Emporia, KS.

Disclosure 1: Any unattached feed bunks, troughs or bins are the property of the Tenant and do not transfer to the Buyer. Disclosure 2: The majority of the homes in the area are supplied by water wells as there isn't rural water readily available on these properties we are selling. Potential buyers are to do their own due diligence regarding public water supply. You can contact Osage County Rural Water District #8 or the City of Eskridge. Tract 8 totals 160 +/- acres and is contiguous to both Tracts 7 and 10. This tract and Tract 7 that adjoins it to the west are being offered separately and in combination as Tract 9, with the property selling in whichever form garners the most proceeds for the Seller. If you purchase the combination, you can then buy Tract 10 which is the 1/2 section to the south, creating one contiguous tract of 560 acres more or less. Tract 8 is composed of an attractive mix of cropland, Native and tame grass complimented by a set of cattle pens for catching and sorting located just off the north boundary road. This is another tract that would be an excellent prospect to background stockers or calve your cows due to forage options, water supply, natural windbreaks and cattle handling infrastructure. Water availability is excellent with 3 ponds on the property and a wet-weather creek running through the east side. There's also a gravity-fed watering system coming out of the south pond that, according to the tenant, was used as recently as last year but needs some repairs to the hydrant and related plumbing. According to the Tenant, this is a spring-fed pond that typically stays mostly full
