Pastures can be divided into sections of 22, 9, and 5 acres. The 22-acre section has an automatic waterer, with access for other pastures if gates remain open. A farm gate with a cattle guard allows access for stock trucks and heavy vehicles, keeping them away from the house and driveway. Farm lanes have a blue stone underlayment. Outbuildings include a 30' x 30' Morton building and two run-in sheds. The Morton building is wired for electricity, piped for water, and divided into a workshop and storage room. Roofs over both sections add storage space. One side has a hangar-style door, and another has a garage door, with floor space for a tractor, mower, and utility vehicle. All well equipment was raised above ground in a heated shed (2017) with a sump pump. Water is treated with a salt-based softener and ultraviolet purifier. The septic system has been routinely maintained. (All sizes approximate) 6 horses currently on property belong to neighbor so please all gates must remain closed. The 60 acre parcel that adjoins this property is in conservation easement which means lifelong privacy for you! Call me today to schedule your private showing!
