Actively used and lovingly developed as a working homestead farm, the property features three garden areas with abundant raised beds, a greenhouse, thousands invested in organic compost and enriched soil, and an impressive established edible landscape of fruit and nut trees, berries and grapevines. Years of planting, cultivation and soil building are already in place for the next owner to enjoy. The sheer amount of usable outbuilding space is one of the features that truly sets this property apart. Multiple substantial barns, sheds and specialty structures provide exceptional possibilities for livestock, workshops, equipment, storage, poultry, gardening, hobbies and future projects. The massive barn style building adjacent to the home has housed sheep and goats and features an oversized wood burning stove and upper loft previously used as a home gym.
