Property is mostly flat with some gently rolling areas. Open pastures are around the home sites as well as the garden/orchard area, other side of property is nicely wooded with a seasonal creek that runs the length of the property.
Land is suited for most things including grazing fiber animals and/or raising livestock.
Landholders believe that this property is full of potential but also have expectations of land seekers that are dedicated to the farming environment.
We have for lease/rent a 650 sqft self contained cottage on a 14 acre homestead where we grow a large percentage of our own food. No chemicals have been used for at least the last 17 years. We view this as a business opportunity for someone that has verifiable experience raising dairy goats, poultry, or meat rabbits that would like to start their own business but does not have the land and/or resources to purchase their own farm.
Property has a studio cottage near the main house which is 650 sqft. Cottage is self contained with it’s own electricity meter and wood stove for heating and cooking. It has a small storage space/utility room off the back door where parking is. A complete remodel was done in 2015 including new roof, siding and windows.
Rent/lease price is negotiable depending on your business plan and how much land/resources you need to accomplish that goal.
