Here's an awesome historical property just ready for your horses and creativity near the Elk Mountain range. This is the original Elbert & Harriet Ward homestead in Custer Highlands and features a 26x29 barn (2003) with loft/living quarters potential and a new 20x30 metal shed (2021)with concrete floor. Barn and property recently had cement poured. New shed is stubbed for plumbing, electric and septic. Barn also prepped to bring over power, water and septic. Electric is ready to be pulled to building with trenching ready to go. The original home rock foundation can still be seen on the property. Wells are few and far between in the area and most homes use cisterns and either haul their own water or use a water delivery service. This is a wonderful acreage with awesome sunrise views and lots of wildlife.
