About this property
97.5 acres of land in 2 parcels (the larger one was recently surveyed) with about 1/2 in organic grass hay. 1187' for frontage on lightly-traveled paved road. It has a southern exposure and long views to the southeast. The remainder is either wooded or is pasture turning into woods. There is a like-new pole barn here, 27x88', and it's a real dandy. It has two 12' sliding doors and a man-door. Trusses are made from 10" and 12" studs. And the peak is crowned by clear Lexan, which makes it almost as bright as daylight inside. (Lexan is a VERY tough material, not like the fibreglas that you usually see.) Part has a cement floor and studding to separate it as a workshop. The rest has a rubble (crushed stone) floor. There is a new 200 amp electric service, a new drilled well piped into the barn, set up to be used with a frost-free hydrant (included). Included are a oil hot air furnace, an oil-fired water heater, + a wood furnace. They are not hooked up. Double pane windows are found throughout the barn. There are some interesting features here. A high line goes through so you get to use the 8 acres of hay land that is under it, use it as if it were your own. There is also a gas line under there, but it can't be seen. There has been serious interest in siting both a windmill and a sub-station here, 2 different firms. You might get a $70000 income plus whatever is made on the hay as a windmill does not interfere with what is under it. Note: no commitment has been made for these opportunities. Or just live a good life here and enjoy your animals and the views from your new home. There are Amish and Mennonite neighbors so there is a nearby source of help for home building or crops. Taxes on both parcels are around $2300. You could buy them separately (38.5 and 59 acres) to get the price lower than the the $650000 it is for the entire property. To make it easy to buy, the owner is willing to carry terms for a short period for a qualified buyer.

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
