All existing irrigation equipment is included, enhancing this remarkable offer. The extensive outbuildings provide generous space for storage and animal care, featuring barn stalls, paddocks, hay storage, a chicken coop with run, a heated chick brooder room, a tack room, an insulated tool room, a carport, a garden shed, and much more! You’ll also have plenty of parking for trailers or RVs. With the property across the road protected by a conservation easement, your beautiful views of open space will remain untouched.
