Description

The D Bar Farm is 257 acres in Wright County, built around the needs of a working cattle operation, combining productive pasture, quality soils, extensive livestock facilities, dependable water, and a comfortable home in one complete property. With Highway 5 frontage, excellent improvements, and convenient access to Lebanon and Marshfield, the farm offers the infrastructure and land base to support livestock production from day one. The land is set up for rotational grazing with multiple water sources, productive hay ground, and fields that could potentially be utilized for silage or other feed crops. Quality soils are found throughout the farm, including Class II soils along the Highway 5 frontage fields. A spring, deep well, wet-weather creek, and several ponds provide additional water across the property. The livestock infrastructure is a major asset. A large covered cattle working facility features concrete floors, numerous holding pens, and backgrounding pens for calves. A 200' x 40' pit silo with a concrete floor provides substantial feed storage capacity. Additional improvements include a large shop with two oversized overhead doors that can accommodate semis, RVs, boats, tractors, and other equipment, as well as a large level barnyard for additional hay and machinery storage. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 2,314 square feet of living space and 2,825 square feet under roof. Set well back from the highway for privacy, the home is approached by an asphalt driveway lined with pipe fencing that continues along the road frontage. Inside, the home features an open floor plan, warm wood finishes, a kitchen island and bar seating, and a mudroom with direct access to the washer and dryer off the two-car garage. Recent updates include a new HVAC system and roof. A covered front porch provides a comfortable place to take in the farm setting. Beyond the agricultural operation, the property offers plenty to enjoy outdoors. Mature timber, scenic views, ponds, the spring, and creek habitat provide excellent recreational value and quality hunting opportunities. The combination of open ground and timber gives the farm a diverse landscape while providing additional cover and travel corridors for wildlife. For a buyer looking to establish or expand a cattle operation, the property offers another unique opportunity. The owner is willing to sell the existing cattle through a separate transaction, with owner-financing options available on the livestock. This could provide the next owner an opportunity to purchase the real estate and transition directly into a stocked cattle operation. From grazing and hay production to cattle handling, equipment storage, hunting, and country living, this Wright County farm brings the major pieces of a productive livestock operation together in one location.
