The corral setup will make any cattle man happy to work cattle , thousands of dollars of pipe fencing. Owner will consider leaving head chute, and he will also let the three grain bins go with the place. The house is a older farm house that is completely remodeled, 4 bedroom 2 bath. Metal exterior for maintenance free. Covered back and front porch for watching the livestock. 4 nice big out buildings, one is a nice shop-work area building, there is a 3 sided equipment building for parking vehicles , or tractors. Also 2 barns , that have tons of storage area in them. This place is set up for a working cattle operation , and won't disappoint. Pomme De Terre lake is only minutes away for family fun. Springfield Missouri is only an hour away. Farms don't come along often like this , call to set up a appointment to look at it.
