190 272 ST Lathrop, MO 64465

Gorgeous rolling 190 total acres, 118 acres in CRP, excellent soils, strong income, big timber finger outskirts, two wet weather creeks, ¼ mile off blacktop Hwy 69, stocked pond, and 45min from KC! This area near the Clinton and Caldwell county line has continued to appreciate rapidly in value given the quick access, great hunting, and desired Lathrop school district. As you enter into the farm, you crest on top well laying ridge that gently slopes into the timber perimeters and pond on the west. The CP1 CRP has taken off and looks excellent also providing great wildlife bedding areas. This ridge is all Class III 2% slope soil and would be very productive in cropland after CRP expiration. As you continue into the farm you will see a the larger blocks of timber towards the southern end of the property containing mature oaks, walnuts, hickory, maple, cottonwood and various other tree species. The block of timber on the southeast corner is approximately 25 acres, has a creek cutting through the center, multiple trail access points, and an existing box blind on the perimeter. There are some areas that would allow for food plot sites hidden from the road but good hunting access, which the existing CRP contract would allow for up to 11.8 acres of food plots! There is no question there are big deer and a gob of turkey's roosting on the farm. The natural design allows a new owner to create a great habitat for wildlife.
It is very hard to find a good investment property with recreational value in a growing community this close to Kansas City. . Also, if a buyer wasn't able to use the property as much as they hoped, this farm is a great purchase to hold from an investment standpoint. It will continue to climb in value, the CRP payment will be there annually, and once it expires it is looking as if a crop lease would provide even more annual income.
