Buy Home & Current Agricultural Business All in One

RECENTLY REDUCED ANOTHER $40,0000. MAKE US A REASONABLE OFFER! We have a unique property that would lend itself to several different usages. It could be a small Bed and Breakfast, a Private home with an attached handicapped-accessible apartment for Mom or for elderly care, or it could just be home to a huge family or a two-generation family.

There are 4 fields currently in fruit/vegetable production with sales being made to chefs in the city and at the local farmer's market. All of the fields are grown without commercial applications of pesticides or fertilizers. We use green manure and cover crops as the basis for our fertilization program. The majority of the crops are produced in raised beds. We have 2 makeshift greenhouses that aren't pretty but they serve the purpose. They can be left or torn down at the new owner's request.

The property has a tool shed which has one of the greenhouses attached to it as a lean-to. It also features a small barn that would handle a couple of ponies, sheep or goats. There is also a two-story smoke house that has shelves in the bottom for canned goods and is used for storage on the upper storage.

The main house is 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, livingroom, kitchen, family room, large utility room, sunroom and a pantry room. Attached to that is a two bedroom, bath, livingroom, and kitchen apartment over a 2 1/2 car garage. The apartment is handicapped accessible via a ramp to the deck in the back. The apartment has a separate parking carport in the back also which opens to the ramp.

The apartment boasts cathedral ceilings in both bedrooms and the livingroom and has architectural windows over double-hung windows allowing for lots of light. It has electric baseboard heat with gas backup.

The main house is heated with mini-split heat pumps and/or an optional woodstove and gas backup. It has a gorgeous view overlooking the whole property from the sunroom where you might see deer, turkeys, foxes and a myriad of birds. The house sits uphill from the majority of the property and the back yard rises up the mountain for complete privacy. The road dead ends at the house as this is the last house on the road.

There is a small creek that wanders the length of the property which is used to irrigate the fields. And there is a gravity flow spring from the mountain. The mountain views from one of the fields are gorgeous. You could build a separate house in this field.

The small town of Columbus is only 2 1/2 miles away while there is major shopping 25-30 minutes in three different directions. The house has a rural feel but is not isolated. It is in the country, but close enough to amenities to make it comfortable. There is a small community hospital only 3-4 miles away.

The original realtor appraisal of this home was over $500,000 two years ago. It was originally listed at $479,000, then reduced to $439,000; and the current asking price is $359,000, which is negotiable.
