This Beautiful mixed use farm consists of 79 +/- acres along with an old homestead, barn, old outbuildings, and grain silos. A pond lies on the eastern border near the middle of the property while a barbed wire fence surrounds the pasture. There are 12.15 +/- acres of cropland on the south side of the property and 6.75 +/- acres of cropland on the north side of the property. The Class 2 soils rating allows for intense farming. The additional 54.69 +/- acres consist of pasture ground. Located on the northeastern part of the property is a great, older homestead area with strong shelter belts blocking the wind from all sides. The quail and pheasant numbers in the area are strong and geese have been seen flying over or around the property nearly every visit to the property. With the pond, food sources, and shelter belt, large whitetail deer meander throughout the area often.  While walking the property, especially around the old homestead, you can see and feel the history.
