Condition & Current Use

Currently a family home going unused. The land has been leased successfully in the past but my fathers health got in the way of maintaining those agreements. I'm buying the land, there is a large barn but it is in rough condition. It does have water and electricity though.

Farm History & Past Use

Dairy farm in the 1800s, then an equine center for about 30yrs before transitioning to a hobby farm.

Premier soil with natural irrigation, would prefer someone utilize the land for any general crops. You could use the barn for poultry, I'm not sure if it's suitable for other livestock. This is something that can be discussed and negotiated.
