About this land

40 Acres, More or Less Knox County, Nebraska Recreational Land with Verdigre Creek, Wetlands, Timber & Potential Cabin Site This approximately 40-acre recreational tract, subject to completion of a survey, offers a rare opportunity to own a smaller parcel with excellent paved highway access, scenic views, abundant wildlife, and direct proximity to the Verdigre Creek. The property consists of approximately 33 acres of wetlands enrolled in the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) and approximately 7 acres of cropland currently seeded to alfalfa. The alfalfa acreage provides an attractive potential building or recreational site, with portions of the property situated above the flood zone and offering scenic views overlooking the Verdigre Creek and surrounding hills. This area could provide an excellent location for a cabin, weekend retreat, or RV campsite, subject to applicable restrictions, permits, and floodplain requirements. Wildlife and recreational opportunities are abundant. The property provides excellent habitat for whitetail deer and wild turkey, with mature hardwood timber, natural cover, wetlands, and plentiful water resources. The marsh and wetland areas also provide habitat and potential hunting opportunities for waterfowl. Located adjacent to the Verdigre Creek, the property is conveniently situated just minutes from the Niobrara River and Missouri River corridors, providing access to some of northeast Nebraska's most scenic and recreational areas. The property is also located near Niobrara State Park and within the designated Niobrara National Scenic River area. Small recreational tracts with this combination of paved access, creek frontage, wetlands, timber, wildlife habitat, and potential recreational homesite are increasingly difficult to find and rarely become available on the open market.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

    1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
    2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
    3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
    4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
    5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
    6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
    7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
    8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
    9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
