Here is place where time stood still. From the trails leading in to this property, it appears to be polluted with deer bedding in the thick pines of the overgrown pasture areas. There are still some open areas of the old farm that could be used for food plots. The old two story home place could be used as a hunting cabin. Electric has been added to the property to make your start a little easier. If you’re not afraid of a challenge, the pastures could be cleaned up, the house could be updated to your standards and you could bring this old farm back to life. Located less than 4 miles from Rt 50, this convenient location could be your place to escape from the city life. Call for details!
