1306 Road c Red Cloud, NE 68970

Located just south of Red Cloud, Nebraska, this 80+/- acre Webster County property combines productive agricultural ground, grass and hay acreage, dense wildlife cover, significant elevation change, and a large Morton Building in an area known for quality whitetail habitat. Situated at 1306 Road C, Red Cloud, NE, the property is approximately 3 miles south of Red Cloud on Highway 281 and 1 mile east on County Road C. Its location, approximately 2 miles south of the Republican River, places the property in a diverse agricultural and river-bottom landscape while maintaining convenient access to Red Cloud. The property is legally described as W1/2 SW1/4, Section 19, Township 1, Range 10, and contains approximately 80 acres. The land features a diverse mix of agricultural production, open grassland, and dense wooded cover. Approximately 26+/- acres are currently planted to corn, while approximately 41+/- acres consist of grass and hay ground. An approximately 3+/- acre building site contains the Morton Building, with the remaining acreage primarily consisting of trees and waterways. For the hunting and recreational landowner, the combination of timber, cropland, grass, water, and elevation creates a strong habitat mix on a relatively compact tract. The wooded portions are dense and provide substantial bedding and security cover for whitetails, while the open grass and agricultural acres create natural transition areas between cover and food. Approximately 95 feet of elevation change across the property adds another dimension to the terrain and creates multiple habitat edges and travel corridors. The property's proximity to the Republican River, approximately 2 miles to the north, is another important component of its recreational appeal. The Republican River corridor and surrounding agricultural landscape provide a combination of water, timber, crop ground, and cover that supports whitetail deer and other wildlife throughout this part of south-central Nebraska. Food and water sources are abundant throughout the surrounding area, and good deer sign was observed by the listing agent while walking the property. The approximately 26 acres currently planted to corn provide both agricultural production and a seasonal food source for wildlife. The approximately 41 acres of grass and hay ground provide additional agricultural utility while creating open areas adjoining the property's wooded cover. This mixture gives the tract multiple uses and creates a landscape where agricultural production and wildlife habitat can complement one another. Another major feature is the 48x68 Morton Building, constructed in 2006. The building has a full concrete floor and large sliding doors on each end, allowing equipment and implements to move through the structure. The building also includes a walk-through entry door, windows, and three separate water hookups inside. With approximately 3,264 square feet under roof, the Morton Building provides considerable usable space for tractors, implements, vehicles, hunting equipment, ATVs, UTVs, and general storage. Its size and existing concrete floor also provide flexibility for other potential uses. Subject to applicable zoning, permits, building requirements, and utility considerations, a future owner could explore partially finishing the building for residential or recreational living space while retaining garage, shop, or equipment-storage space. Water infrastructure adds additional utility to the building site. The property is serviced by rural water, with a hydrant located near the entrance along Road C. Three separate water hookups are located inside the Morton Building. This established water access is a valuable improvement for agricultural, recreational, and potential future building-site uses. The property currently has farm tenants in place, allowing the agricultural portions of the tract to remain actively managed. The existing cropland and hay or grass acreage provide an agricultural component that may help offset ownership expenses while preserving the recreational character of the property. Lease details, possession, crop arrangements, and related terms should be confirmed with the listing agent. The approximately 95 feet of elevation change is especially noteworthy for an 80-acre tract. Changes in terrain combined with dense timber, waterways, open grass, and crop ground create numerous transitions across the property. These transitions can influence deer movement as wildlife travels between bedding cover, feeding areas, and water sources. The combination also gives a hunter multiple options when evaluating stand locations and prevailing wind directions. Dense wooded areas provide the type of security cover whitetails regularly utilize, while the open acreage gives the property a balance of visibility and habitat diversity. The waterways further break up the landscape and create additional natural travel routes. With crop ground incorporated into the tract and additional agriculture throughout the surrounding countryside, the property is positioned within a larger habitat system rather than relying exclusively on its own acreage for food and cover. Location is another key feature of this Webster County hunting and farm property. The tract provides a rural setting while remaining only a few miles from Red Cloud. Highway 281 provides convenient north-south access through the area, and the property is reached approximately 1 mile east along County Road C. This makes it possible to own a recreational and agricultural property without being far removed from the services available in Red Cloud. For someone looking for Nebraska hunting land, Webster County land for sale, a recreational farm near the Republican River, south-central Nebraska whitetail property, or acreage with a large equipment building, this tract brings together several desirable features in one location. The combination of approximately 26 acres of corn, 41 acres of grass and hay ground, dense timber, waterways, rural water, and an established Morton Building provides considerably more diversity than a single-use agricultural tract. The property also offers opportunities beyond hunting. The Morton Building provides immediate storage for farm machinery, recreational equipment, and vehicles. The grass acreage can continue to provide hay or grazing potential, while the tillable acres can remain in crop production. The wooded portions and waterways provide wildlife habitat and recreational value. Together, these features allow the property to function as a working agricultural tract, hunting property, recreational retreat, or combination of these uses.
