About this home
Ranch & Farm Auctions, a division of Whitetail Properties Real Estate, is honored to bring the William (Bill) E. Smith Jr. Farm to auction on behalf of the Smith family heirs. This 307.6± acre Lyon County, Kansas farm carries Century Farm status and has remained in the same family for generations, meaning this is the first opportunity the general public has ever had to purchase this ground since it was homesteaded. The farm will be selling in two tracts.
Property address is: 873 Road 230, Americus, KS, 66835
Auction will be held at is: Champions Landing, 1801 Rural St, Emporia, KS 66801
Auction Date: 10/15/2026 Auction Time: 11:00 AM CT
Showings by appointment only.
Allen Creek flows through the farm, creating a natural travel corridor for the trophy whitetail deer the area is known for. At the northwest corner of tract 1 is a 1,248 sq ft, 2-bedroom, 1-bath home with a full unfinished basement, well-suited as a primary residence or as a basecamp for a hunter using the farm year-round, along with a large shop with a concrete floor for storing equipment and gear.
Hunting pressure has been limited for years, and the results show, a fact backed up by trail camera photos captured this past summer.
The tillable acreage across the farm is predominantly Class 1 and Class 2 soils, some of the most productive ground available, delivering strong yields and dependable return on investment. Cash rent on soils of this quality is expected to remain strong for the buyer who chooses to lease the tillable acres.
A certified forester has evaluated the entire property and a detailed forestry report is available upon request.
Whether the draw for a buyer is the row-crop income, the whitetail hunting, or both, the William (Bill) E. Smith Jr. Farm delivers at a level that is difficult to find on the open market. This is a rare chance to own a piece of Lyon County’s agricultural and hunting heritage. Contact the listing agent to schedule a private showing....
