About this land

We are honored to represent the Lowder Family with the sale of the historic Lowder Ranch Headquarter Section via hybrid auction (both in-person and online bidding: November 5th-9th). This beautiful Flint Hills pasture tract, with historic limestone rock home, is located in northern Lyon County, totals 638-acres, and is composed of quality native and cool season grasses that provide exceptional utility to both the cow-calf and grow/starter/yearling operator. Featuring a nice combination of productive native and cool season grasses, minimal tree/brush pressure, four ponds, a wet-weather draw along Dow Creek, 85' of topography change, historic limestone home, shop, pipe pens, rural water, and paved road access this property is one you don't want to miss. Full sections with paved road access and utilities set up to accommodate a true headquarter site rarely come available so don't miss out on this exceptional opportunity! This exceptional parcel is located south of Allen and has good, paved road access along its eastern border, along with gravel road access along both its southern and western borders. The property has a beautiful gentle roll to it with good views of the surrounding Flint Hills in all directions. The parcel includes a wonderful combination of productive native and cool season grasses providing for an extended grazing season, ideal for a cow-calf producer or for starting cattle. A majority of the property is composed of a good stand of native warm season grasses with additional acreage along Dow Creek, and in the SE portion of the property, being composed of cool season Brome and Fescue grasses on productive underlying soils. Aerial spraying has been completed in the past 2-3 years in order to properly manage the grass acreage on the parcel. The property generally features average to good fencing (small section of below average fencing in the eastern half of the northern property fence) with a roughly 95-acre cross-fenced pasture in the SE portion of the tract and a roughly 13-acre horse pasture near the home site on the property. Water availability on the parcel is good with four individual ponds, a wet-weather draw along Dow Creek, and rural-water all available for watering livestock. A Quonset shed with full concrete floor and spray foam insulation is located SW of the home on the property for storage with an attached lean-to with pipe pens for horses or cattle. A nice large set of new pipe shipping and sorting pens is located along the southern end of the property along Rd 310 with great access. The home on the property is located along paved Rd L on the eastern border of the property and is a limestone rock home built in the late 1800's. The home is nearly 1700sf in size with three bedrooms and recently had a new roof and new windows installed. If you have been looking for a true headquarter site to call home in the Kansas Flint Hills this one should be moved to the top of your list. Having the ability to have your headquarter site located on a full section of land with paved road access, a wonderful combination of productive cool season and native grasses in place, a nice limestone home, and rural water access doesn't come along often so come prepared to bid! Whether you are a cattle producer looking to add a top shelf grazing unit to your operation, are an investor looking for a desirable property that is highly rentable, or are solely an individual looking for a beautiful Flint Hills property to sneak away to you aren't going to want to miss your opportunity to purchase this quality tract. ***We will additionally be auctioning a large 3000 +/- head backgrounding facility with additional adjoining acreage and a separate 234-acre pasture all within 5-miles of this property later this fall for those looking to put this tract together with additional acreage to form a large 1300+ acre operation.

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.
