About This Home

As of January 2025

Shy 80 acre farm with development potential in prime mid-county location. Overlooking the private, treelined lake sits the custom midcentury home, a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath and 3,894 sq ft with an attached garage, vaulted ceilings, picture windows, large deck and a two-story white stone fireplace. The entire property is fenced and cross-fenced for rotational grazing with a cattle guard entrance. Huge cattle barn with equipment parking, hay storage, feed bunkers, winter sacrifice pasture and loafing barn. Bull pasture with lean-to. The Yak barn is roughly 30' X 60' and would be perfect for horses with stalls and a roundpen. Currently the farm is a holistically managed grass-fed beef operation with a well-respected roadside farmstand.
