Located west of Mt. Vernon, Missouri, and just one mile north of Interstate 44, lies this well-maintained property featuring a 5,000 +/- square foot home, a large shop, and a barn all sitting on 40+/- acres. If you're searching for a large home with a fully functioning farm operation, look no further.
As you pull into the drive up to the house, you'll appreciate the orientation of the home and outbuildings. The three-story Amish-built home features six bedrooms and four bathrooms. While a portion of the basement is part of the original 1979 farmhouse, the main portions of the home were built in 2013. The home is completely wired for electric, and features a spacious open floor plan, hardwood floors, and a great view overlooking the pastures to the south.
Situated just a short walk from the home is a 1,175 square foot shop with concrete floors and electric, a 25'x40' barn with a 15' lean-to, and a large chicken coop. One of the best features of the property is a large one-acre blueberry patch. The sellers currently run a seasonal pick your own operation from the farm, which typically runs 3-4 weeks in the summer. The blueberry patch is made up of 32 individual rows comprised of three varieties of blueberries, including Bluecrop, Blueray, and Duke. This seasonal harvest provides approximately $15,000 of yearly farm income.
The remaining acreage of the farm is comprised of about 30 acres of fenced and cross-fenced pasture and about 5 acres of timber. The property has paved road frontage along the north boundary along County Road 2130 and a second side of road frontage on the west side along County Road 1053.
