REAL ESTATE: This one checks the boxes: high percentage fertile tillable land, solid home and buildings, location, ideal layout, and sells to the highest bidder. Of the total 75.1 acres, approximately 63 are open and tillable with the balance the homestead and 6 acres of woods. The farm not only offers ideal surface drainage but also benefits from systematic tiling throughout much of the farm. The past few years fertilizer and lime improvements have increased fertility as is evident in this year's crop of 69.5 bushel to the acre of soybeans. The 6 acres of woods on the rear of the property does have some mature timber and is ideal for harvesting one of the large bucks roaming the property. 

Matching the character of the land is a good farm homestead giving you the opportunity to purchase a picturesque Richland County farm. The main level of the two-story farmhouse has a bedroom, family room, living room, kitchen, full bath, and both a front and rear enclosed porch. The upstairs offers 2-3 additional bedrooms. The home is solid and ready for you to make whatever modern renovations you desire. There are several outbuildings on the property used over the years for livestock and equipment storage. The home and buildings have always been well maintained. 

If you find yourself in the market for a very practical farm with an outstanding location, this farm will be at the top of your list. The farm will be sold by the acre and only offered in its entirety.
