Currently, there are four horse stalls (can be reconfigured for more), an outdoor riding arena, pastures fenced with electrified high-tensile wire, two heated livestock waterers, plenty of hay storage in the old barn, livestock shelters in the pastures, and a fenced-in chicken coop. The historic barn received a new roof in 2018. A rare opportunity to own a turnkey horse property with character, acreage, and space to grow.
