Offered in two parcels, this property provides outstanding opportunities for farmers, ranchers, investors, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

The farmstead includes a 4-bedroom home, 40' x 60' shop with concrete floor, 40' x 100' pole building, detached garage, barn, corrals, and numerous livestock pens.

Water is one of the property's greatest assets with two wells, including a 30 ft. well with 36 in. casing and a 250 ft. well with 10 in.casingdesigned for irrigation, with a reported static water level of approximately 10 ft. below the surface.

Conservation easements protect portions of the property while maintaining its agricultural usefulness. The grass waterway through the center of the property and pasture in the northeast portion are enrolled in a wetland easement that allows continued grazing. Waterfowl easements on portions of the property prohibit the drainage of wetlands but do not restrict normal farming operations.

Whether your goals include expanding your crop acres, developing a premier livestock headquarters, or investing in a highly diversified agricultural property with excellent recreational appeal, this offering represents an exceptional opportunity in Wells County.
