Gorgeous one of a kind 142 acre farm that has been in the family nearly 100 years. Slightly over half is tillable acreage with a dependable farmer that has rented the ground for many years. The rest is heavily wooded with over 1000 feet of Lower Lake frontage. Lower Lake is a no wake lake, 40+/- acres, with approximately 10 homes on south side. Farm house has a dividing wall so Grandma could live independently in an in-law apartment. This is a hunter, horse lover, farmers dream property. The land is exceptional, has 15 splits available, tillable ground in the area rents in the $100 per acre range, and is very rolling with beautiful building sites everywhere. The sellers have contracted with a timber buyer and there will be a harvest of timber within the next 12 months.

The intent of this district is to promote a range of low intensity land uses including low-density residential, farming and farm-related activities, light industrial and resource extraction. Those lands with important wood stands, lakes, streams or wetlands or with important wildlife or view corridors should be carefully developed to protect these contributing features, while enabling a reasonable degree of low intensity development. The transfer of development rights to more appropriate portions of the site or the county will be encouraged.
