Located at the end of a half-mile private lane, peaceful is the best description for this property. Bordered by Amidon State Conservation area of the Mark Twain National Forest, and three other large family owned farms, you will never have to worry about "being crowded". There is approximately one quarter mile of private river frontage. The river has numerous springs feeding it, which makes cooling off easy on those hot summer days. This farm has not had any aritificial fertilizers for the past sixteeen years. Fertilization was accomplished using composted poultry manure that feeds the soil and consistently produced quality hay and forage. The pastures have a mix of fescue, timothy, red and white clover, lespedeza, and red top. There are no rocks in the pastures, and are set-up for rotational grazing if desired. There are two ponds, one is spring-fed that is designed to provide a gravity feed system through 3,000 ft. of underground piping. There are separate watering stations strategically placed in order to provide water throughout the length of the farm. There is also a live creek that provides additional watering options. This farm could be excellent for cattle, horses, crops, or vineyards. If you just want a peaceful and beautiful place to live, and let the farm produce hay, the hay is spoken for every year. The home has been updated throughout with a recent addition of a master suite and bath wtih AquaGlass jetted tub and large AquaGlass stand-up shower. There are two sinks wtih custom tile surrounding the tub. His and hers walk-in closets and custom cabinets. There are two A/C-Heating units with a wood--burning furnace.
