Tract 2: 53.48+/- Acres
Description: This 53.48+/- acres is a beautiful mix of native hay meadow, timber, and creek bottom. Seven Mile Creek runs through the property west to east, through a 12.74-acre timber tract located south of a 20.99-acre hay meadow. A wooded trail runs through these trees west to east along the creek taking you to an old rock house. There is also a former homesite with a basement and a metal building with a garage door. Two other tracts of 7.67 acres and 12.08 acres were once cropland overtaken by trees. FSA carries the cropland as 41.27 acres, but only the 20.99-acre hay meadow could be considered cropland today. It’s still fully based by FSA with 41.27 acres of wheat and corn base. An access road in the northeast corner of the property has a locked gate.
The 20.99 hay meadow was intended for a prior developer's construction of storage units. The land is bordered on the north by Skyway Drive, running from Ogden east to the Manhattan Regional Airport. The Union Pacific railroad and the K-18 highway border the south. A city-owned storm water diversion channel runs through tracts 2, 3, and 4.
