Field of Dreams Farm

Farm Description

The sellers call this Richland County farm, “Field of Dreams”; I call it “very unique”. After all, where can you leave 344+/- acres of hunting and recreation, and 5 minutes later be sitting at one of a half dozen restaurants? And for those that want other conveniences; gas, shopping, banking, and a hospital are a similar distance.

The layout of this parcel makes it easy to forget that you are near civilization. Approximately 235 acres of wooded land flows across several ridges and secluded pockets while intertwining with 98+/- acres of tillable valley crop ground. A few small hidden glades would be ideal for wildlife food plots. 215 acres of the timberland is enrolled in the Managed Forest Law (Mfl closed) program to assist with the forest management and help keep taxes lower. The crop ground is leased in a year-to-year lease.

Over seven miles of established trails are ideal for Atv, horses, or hiking. These paths meander across wooded ridgetops, through hidden valleys, past rock outcroppings and around a wildlife pond. Other routes will take you past the local golf course, around crop fields and adjacent to the Pine River and Center Creek, both of which flow through the property. Access to the far reaches of the property and a local snowmobile trail will not be a problem.

While the predominant value of this property is in the land, the homes on the property are not to be overlooked. The original 5 bedroom, 1.5 bath home is an 1880'S (as per sellers) brick beauty. Stepping through the door takes you on a journey back in time. It could be left as is for occasional use or remodeled to bring it back to its former glory. The second home (5 bedroom, 2 bath) appears to be a mid-century construction and is currently rented out. A few small sheds round out the homestead.

This fine property offers many options. Hunting farm, recreational parcel or development property are just a few that come to mind. Explore your options today.
