The Flying "V" Ranch consists of 160+/- acres and offers an ideal blend of agricultural productivity, country living, and recreational opportunity. With quality soils, well-maintained improvements, and a spacious home, this property is well-suited for a working cattle operation, agricultural production, or simply enjoying the peace of rural living. The land features three ponds, perimeter and cross-fencing, and approximately 18 acres of established hay meadow. The majority of the property consists of Class II silt loam soils-once in tillable production and now in a mix of tame cool-season and native warm-season grasses-providing flexibility to continue as grazing ground or return to tillable acreage. Working pens equipped with a squeeze chute, tub, alleyway, and automatic waterers make livestock handling efficient and practical, and they are just a short walk from the house. The 1985 split-level ranch-style home provides comfort and functionality, offering 1,566 finished sq. ft. on the main floor plus additional finished living space in the basement. With 3-4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an office, sunroom, hot tub, and walkout decks, the home is designed for family living and relaxation. An oversized attached two-car garage adds convenience, while the gated blacktop drive ensures both privacy and curb appeal. Supporting improvements include a newly built 50'x40'x14' insulated shop (2021) with two 12' overhead doors, two walk doors, and concrete floors-perfect for equipment, vehicles, or workshop use. Multiple additional outbuildings provide ample storage and livestock support, including utility buildings, storage sheds, loafing sheds, and lean-tos. Whether your goals are agricultural or residential, this diverse property delivers both function and lifestyle. With quality soils, a comfortable home, and extensive improvements, it is ready to support your vision from day one. All mineral, oil, and natural gas rights will transfer with the property, which includes one natural gas well. Additional acreage may be available.
