Waterfowl and Upland Bird Haven

Land Description

This premier 47.75 +/- acre bird hunting property south of Kersey in Weld County, Colorado, delivers immediate access to exceptional waterfowl and upland bird hunting while providing full recreational use of the entire original 136-Acre Mallards and Maize property.

Land

The 47.75 +/- acre property gently slopes from the upland areas to the centrally located 5+ acre pond and the Lower Latham Ditch that runs through the property. The upland areas are covered in established native grasses and include several stands of mature trees providing excellent habitat for various bird species.

Both the 47.75 +/- acre offering parcel and the adjacent 88.25 +/- acre remainder are encumbered by a conservation easement that prohibits the construction of any structures, preserving the land's open character, agricultural productivity, and premier wildlife habitat. Please review the attached Conservation Easement below. The easement ensures long-term protection of the property's natural features, 5+ acre pond, and established upland bird and waterfowl habitat that made the original Mallards and Maize property so desirable.

Final boundaries, acreage calculation 47.75 +/- acres, and legal description for the offering parcel will be established by survey and recorded documentation prior to closing at the seller's expense. The remaining parent tract will retain an access easement from County Road 57 to the offering parcel providing access for hunting. This represents a rare chance for the dedicated sporting buyer to own quality Weld County ground while maintaining full hunting privileges across significantly more acreage than the purchased parcel alone provides.

Improvements

The pond has five hunting blinds constructed on it that are strategically located around the pond for hunting in various wind directions. The adjacent 88.25 +/- acre parcel has electric service that will be available for use to power ice eaters as part of the available lease.

Recreation

For serious bird hunters this property provides a unique opportunity to secure prime deeded hunting ground while gaining access to additional adjacent agricultural land. Buyers who submit and close on a full-price offer will receive a three-year exclusive hunting lease on the remaining 88.25 +/- acres. This provides full access across the entire original 136 acres for waterfowl and upland bird hunting - delivering the complete experience of the larger property at a more accessible size and price point.

Agriculture

The adjacent parcel will continue in agricultural production corn, alfalfa, and other crops, which further enhances habitat and hunting quality through crop rotation and edge habitat.
