This gorgeous 8 m/l acre property features a beautiful pond surrounded by lush alfalfa, all situated just off Paved County Rd J20.

This potential building site offers the freedom to live the country lifestyle, with no restrictions or covenants.  Approximately 4.5 acres of the farm is in Alfalfa, which pays $160 per planted acre for 2024.  Going forward, this would make for excellent pasture for a couple horses, 4H cows, or other livestock.  The East side is already fenced, as is the perimeter of the pond. 

The hilltop location offers great views for a potential home or cabin, and the easy access to I-35 makes travel to the city very convenient.
