Nestled along 450 feet of pristine Arkansas River frontage, this remarkable 122+/- acre property offers a blend of agricultural productivity, scenic beauty, and recreational opportunity. Historically operated as the renowned “U-Pick” Heckmann Hollow Orchard and Gardens, the farm boasts over 800 mature fruit trees, including nine apple varieties—McIntosh, Granny Smith, Gala, Red Delicious, Yellow Delicious, Wine Sap, Fuji, Jonathan, and Lodi—alongside peach, pear, mulberry, and cherry trees. The fully fenced orchards, including two male pollinator orchards, are safeguarded by 10-foot wildlife fencing. A 4,000-square-foot garden, also fenced and irrigated, provides additional cultivation space currently used for veggies, flowers, etc.A well-kept and newly remodeled 6-bedroom, 4-bath home anchors the property, including a 2-bedroom, 2-bath basement apartment. Supporting the farm’s operations are multiple loafing sheds, storage sheds, a 4-stall detached garage, and a 23x18 building with full utilities roughed in—perfect for a wild game processing facility, bakery, walk-in cooler, or additional living quarters.The property proudly holds exceptional water rights, including 5 shares of the Oxford Ditch and 40+ acre-feet of Agra water from a beautiful irrigation pond, fed by a 650 GPM pump. A combination of underground piping, gated pipe, and ditch irrigation efficiently sustains three fields of grass/hay mix which have been utilized for additional livestock grazing income by a local rancher, as well as all areas of the orchards. A meandering live-water ditch, with crystal-clear water year-round, further enhances the land’s fertility and wildlife habitat.Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant wildlife, including a resident elk herd, whitetail and mule deer, turkey, and waterfowl, as well as fishing and recreation along the Arkansas River. Scenic picnic areas near the pond and along the river offer the perfect settings to relax and enjoy the surroundings.For sustainability, the main home operates on solar power while remaining on-grid, generating solar credits for efficiency and cost savings.Whether you envision continuing the orchard legacy, expanding agricultural operations, or creating a recreational retreat, this incredible riverfront farm offers boundless potential.Don’t miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind legacy property!****check back soon for the full listing presentation including Premuim listing video, updated spring photos, and more!
