Not my preference, but I need to be back in the US for a while due to family needs. I know that with what is on this farm, and a liveable house with furniture, you couldn’t duplicate this at today’s prices for under $200,000, so this is a pretty good deal if you want a working productive farm with a lot of biodiversity. I love the place, but it is time in my life to let someone else carry it to the next level. Are you that someone?

Pictures of the house
This is a unique house. I designed it based on some buildings I had seen around the country.
Bird, birds and more birds…
