13628 State Route Y, Drexel, MO 64742 - Bates County

Located in northwest Bates County, less than of a mile from the Kansas state line, is this incredible 246 +/- acre tract. Positioned in a big buck area, and containing mature timber, open fields, early successional growth, and multiple water sources, the farm is made up of remarkably diverse habitat, providing everything necessary to grow and harvest giant whitetails, as well as turkeys and small game. The terrain varies from sloping to flat, with over 100 feet in total elevation change from ridgetops and hillsides to creek bottom. Surrounded by agriculture and the east side bordered entirely by railroad, the layout, with southern access, approximately a mile of depth, and an extensive trail system, offers exceptional seclusion and huntability for multiple strategies and wind directions. Although trophy whitetails have been taken here and the property is ready to hunt, there has been minimal management implemented, and it offers a blank slate for a plan. Timber stand improvement, food plots, screening/concealed access, and burning are just some of the practices that could be performed here. The 60 +/- acre east field is made up of Class II soils, has recently been tiled, and with some earthwork could be put into row crop production. Multiple ponds have been cleaned out and tied together to maximize drainage and efficiency.

Providing peaceful privacy and spectacular hilltop views, this farm is ideal for both a primary estate and a recreational getaway. With 3,000 feet of frontage on blacktop State Route Y, power onsite, and water available at the near side of the road, the property offers multiple locations for improvements. Existing amenities include a cabin and double-wide office trailers that are suitable for hunting camp headquarters and/or temporary dwelling(s) while a lodge or home is constructed. Formerly known as Midwest Extreme Park, the property has multiple motocross tracks that could continue to be used for dirt bikes or could be restored to its natural state or reconfigured for other purposes. There are 12 RV power hookups currently in place. The sellers are open to dividing.
