Frontier County Acreage

Click here to watch a video of this property

Frontier County Acreage is country living at its finest! Located just South of Curtis, Nebraska sits a very well kept, cute, country home on 54.62 acres. The property consists of mostly canyon draw pasture loaded with wildlife including mule deer, turkeys and upland birds. The Owners claim there is no shortage of wildlife on this property. There are cedar trees on the property but the Owners have done extensive removal projects through the NRCS CSP program. This CSP program could be transferred to the new owners and runs through 2024. There is a total payment left spread over 3 years totaling $7,542. Around the building site, you will find custom built corrals, two pole barn buildings, a chicken coop with attached pens, a grain bin for storage and a fenced in backyard. There are wide open views to the South with excellent wind protection via mature tree breaks to the North.

The 2 bed 1 bathroom home was remodeled in 2014 when the previous owner added 2 additions to the North and South side of the home. There is a country style, open concept, kitchen with butcher block countertops. The kitchen has an island and an additional bar area with seating. There is plenty of room for hosting guests in this area. The stove has propane burners. Just off of the kitchen is the dining area and a small corner office/hobby area. The master bedroom has plenty of space for a king size bed and nice walk in closet area. The living room area has a nice western feel with the ceiling lined with old barn wood. The home is heated by a new propane heater that provides plenty of warmth to keep the whole house comfortable. In the small basement area you will find the water pressure tank, hot water heater as well as a small room with a closet and egress window that could double as a 3rd bedroom. There is currently no heat source in the basement bedroom but the owners have purchased a small wall heater that they would leave with the property for the new owner to install.

This is a very nice, well maintained property that you do not want to miss! Call me today to set up an appointment for a showing. *BY APPOINTMENT ONLY*

Frontier County Grass

This great piece of rangeland would make a great hunting property, or a nice pasture for some cattle. The property has been cross-fenced into two pastures. Water was previously provided to this property via a neighbor’s house well, and this arrangement has been canceled. A new well would need to be drilled for a new solar panel submersible, and a new tank site would need to be developed. This property is adjacent to 473 acres listed separately by Lashley Land known as Frontier County Drycrop and Range, Tract #1.  This area is known to have good, productive hard land grass. Mule deer and wild turkey traverse this property, providing good recreational opportunities.​

Dawson County Hunt and Farm

Click here to watch a video of this property

Great hunting land with income! This property is tucked away at the end of an isolated road, and is surrounded by crop ground, providing ample feed for deer and other game. There are two ponds on the property, along with a windmill and a tank, so there are water sources for wildlife and cows alike on the property. The submersible well is only 2 years old. This nice piece of Nebraska land for sale is comprised of approximately 108 acres of canyon-y range and around 50 acres of terraced dry cropland.

The range land is ideal for deer (both whitetail and Mule deer are in the area), turkey, doves, quail and pheasant. The draws provide shelter from the frigid winter winds, but close access to both food and water sources. Numerous doves were seen flying near the ponds. The current tenant reports that this property is a neighborhood “highway” for deer traveling between their winter shelter and the best fields for ample winter feed. This year the crop on this dryland farm is sorghum, so it is expected that the birds and deer alike will love to forage in these fields after harvest. The property offers endless entertainment (as well as some danger!) to the avid ATV enthusiast. A few strategically positioned elevated blinds would make this a hunting haven.

Income Potential

  • 10 to 15 pair x 5 months x $40 per month (avg) = $2000 to $3000 annually
  • Crop income figured on the previous year’s corn crop yields. This is the first year of sorghum, so there is no base acre information for that crop.
  • First 30 bushels @ $5.00 = $150.00 x 50 acres = $7,500​ (Existing crop belongs to the renter. Lease expires November 1, 2021)
