This large production farm in northern Ness County is truly the complete package. With 503 +/- tillable acres, 375 +/- acres of fenced grass, a large farmhouse and equipment shed, and active oil production, it truly checks every box. The soils on the tillable ground are excellent, with crop production ratings up in the 70’s. Harney and Uly silt loam make up the majority of the tillable acres. There’s currently 135.83 +/- acres of wheat that will be cut this summer, 143.21 +/- acres planted to milo, 142.2 +/- acres of fallow ground, and 66 +/- acres of CRP making up the tillable acres. All of the tillable ground is being custom farmed, so possession can be passed at closing. The pasture has not been grazed since the summer of 2022, so the grass is in excellent condition. It has solid fencing and features a nice windmill well, along with a beautiful 5 acre pond, ensuring water won’t be an issue, even in a drought year. The combination of the tillable ground and pasture provide an awesome opportunity to graze stalks or green wheat to supplement your herd. A long driveway leads you back to the private farmstead, which features a 2,600 square foot farmhouse. The farmhouse has 3 bedrooms and 2 non-conforming bedrooms, 3 full baths, a large kitchen and living room, and a fully finished basement. All main floor windows have been replaced, and there’s new paint and flooring throughout the entire house. It also includes a 3,600 square foot machine shed, 2,400 square foot barn/utility building, and corrals, including a 400 foot concrete feed bunk. There’s also a small tool shed for additional storage. The active oil production is the cherry on top of this farm. All of the seller’s mineral rights will pass to the buyer at closing.
