Quality farms that combine productive cropland, exceptional wildlife habitat, and long-term investment value have become increasingly difficult to find. This exceptional 166.21+/- acre farm presents a rare opportunity to own a highly versatile property in one of southwest Missouri's most desirable agricultural and recreational regions. Whether your objective is dependable annual income, exceptional hunting, or a land investment with significant future upside, this farm offers a combination of features seldom found in today's market. The agricultural foundation is exceptionally strong. Approximately 115+/- FSA tillable acres provide dependable annual income while featuring a diverse blend of productive soils. The farm is dominated by Barden silt loam, accounting for more than 90 acres, a highly regarded soil known for its productivity and consistent crop performance. Additional quality soils, including Parsons silt loam, further enhance the farm's agricultural capability. The property is currently leased on a year-to-year cash rent agreement at $165 per tillable acre, providing immediate income while allowing a new owner the flexibility to continue the lease, renegotiate future terms, or farm the acreage personally. Positioned immediately adjacent to the Little Osage River corridor, the farm benefits from one of western Missouri's premier wildlife travel routes. Mature hardwood timber, wooded draws, native grasses, and productive cropland create outstanding habitat for mature whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey, and numerous other wildlife species. The nearby river corridor naturally funnels wildlife through the area, while abundant food sources help attract and hold game throughout the year. One of the farm's most compelling attributes is its exceptional waterfowl development potential. Recreational properties capable of supporting managed duck hunting continue to be among the Midwest's most sought-after land investments, and this farm possesses many of the natural characteristics experienced waterfowl managers seek before investing in habitat improvements. Approximately 30 acres of Osage silty clay occupy the lower portion of the farm. This highly desirable soil retains shallow water exceptionally well while promoting beneficial moist-soil vegetation, an important natural food source for migrating ducks. Combined with the property's gentle topography, existing 1.5+/- acre pond and seasonal marsh, and immediate proximity to the Little Osage River, these features create an outstanding foundation for developing a productive managed waterfowl impoundment. Strategically designed levees, water-control structures, and habitat improvements could transform portions of the farm into seasonal wetlands capable of attracting substantial numbers of migrating ducks each fall and winter. Natural drainage patterns and the property's location along the Little Osage River place it within an established migration corridor regularly utilized by waterfowl, creating the opportunity to develop a premier duck hunting property while preserving dependable agricultural income. Located approximately 2.08 miles east of the Kansas state line, the farm also lies within one of the nation's premier whitetail-producing regions. Southeast Kansas has earned a national reputation for producing mature, heavy-antlered bucks, and the adjoining landscape of western Missouri shares the same fertile soils, abundant row-crop agriculture, and river-bottom habitat that consistently produce exceptional deer year after year. Whether your vision is a productive income-producing farm, a premier hunting property, or a diversified land investment with long-term appreciation potential, this farm delivers an exceptional balance of agricultural productivity and recreational opportunity. Farms offering productive tillable acreage, dependable income, outstanding wildlife habitat, and premier waterfowl development potential rarely become available.
