A true wildlife sanctuary awaits you at this well cared for 5 bedrooms/1-bathroom farmhouse nestled in the timber of an amazing 80-acre farm near the famous Whitewater State Park.  This property has not been on the market for nearly 30 years. In the last 30 years, the landowners have raised cattle and row crops, once they made their mind up to stop row cropping and raising cattle they started turning this farm into a wildlife paradise.  After spending 10 minutes on this farm you will see the care the landowners have put into this property, from all the trees planted, birdhouses, trails, ponds, and flowers.  There are many opportunities this property provides the next buyer; this farm would be a great spot to start a hobby farm and use the CRP income and acreage for steady income and great hunting.  There is no doubt that tons of wildlife call this property home.  The locals call this farm the “deer sanctuary” and I believe it, the first time I toured the farm I jumped a fawn that was bedded down inside the barn! There are mowed trails all over the CRP for access for walking, hunting, ATV, horseback riding.  There are 3 ponds on the property so the wildlife doesn’t need to go far from cover.  There is good fencing along most of the property. There is a great woodworking/man cave building just a stone’s throw away from the house with a wood stove inside so you can work all winter long if you like or use it for entertaining. The home has a ton of old farmhouse character and great wood trim detail throughout and you must see to appreciate it. Imagine sitting on your front porch watching the Orioles eat out of the bird feeder while deer cross just out in front of your stunning flower garden while you are enjoying your morning coffee… This happens all the time for the current landowners.  The pole shed, feeding shed, greenhouse are in great shape and can be used for animals or used for other options.  Properties like this do not come along all that often – heck this one has been nearly 30 years! Call today to schedule your own private showing.
