Agricultural and utility structures include a 4,400 sq. ft. barn (~ 55' x 80'), two more barns, machine shop, milk shack, and chicken coop, offering endless possibilities for farming or recreation. Steeped in history and held by one family for generations, this property is ready for its next steward.
