Additional improvements include a detached garage/shop, a 1,650± sq ft barn with workshop, a smoke room and dedicated meat processing room, along with livestock pens and working facilities designed for efficient ranch operations. The infrastructure supports cattle, goats, or diversified agricultural use, and the current ag exemption helps keep annual carrying costs low.
