Tract 1
Tract 1 spans approximately 2,511.5+/- acres north of the Rock Creek fish hatchery, featuring expansive quality pastureland with tanks connected through an underground piping system. This tract also includes a private, fenced-off pond with a durable dock in excellent condition, perfect for fishing and recreation. The rolling landscape, highlighted by limestone cliffs, creates a picturesque setting for wildlife and livestock. Over a dozen tanks provide water to this tract, supplied by a well on Tract 3, a maintenance and water easement will ensure continuous access. Easements are currently in place granting the Upper Republican NRD access to a state-owned underground waterline running North to South through the property.

Tract 2
Tract 2 encompasses approximately 2,717.04+/- acres of stunning pastureland, characterized by lush grass and beautiful rolling hills. The land is divided into two large pastures with quality 4- to 5-wire fencing.

A maintenance and water easement will ensure ongoing water availability.

Tract 3
Situated near Rock Creek State Recreational Area, Tract 3 features a 1,205-square-foot brick ranch-style home. Though in need of repairs, this two-bedroom, one-bath home includes a large kitchen and a basement, offering great potential. A large barn and durable corrals are also on-site for livestock, while a stream originating from the fish hatchery winds through the eastern section of the tract. North of the main house is a charming 1,624-square-foot log cabin, offering two bedrooms, two lofts, a full bath, and a lovely kitchen. Outside, enjoy a peaceful pond stocked with a variety of fish, ideal for private fishing.
