Production Barns Waiting for Their Next Assignment

Property Description

Location! Location! Location! Wow, located right on 50 Highway just outside of Syracuse, Missouri, is 77 +/- acres made up of tillable acres, pasture acres, a manufactured home, 7 former chicken barns, and multiple outbuildings. The property could easily stay the way it's set up now or with minimal work could be converted to mostly tillable or mostly pasture.

I’ll start with the 25 year old barns that are in generally good shape. Not currently under contract with any producers, so the future direction is up to the new owner. The 7 barns are 42’x460’ each with wood trusses and a clear span on concrete footings. They have enclosed sidewalls, tunnel ventilation, insulated drop ceilings, and sidewall fans. The barns are computer-controlled with Rotem computers, primarily dirt floors with some concrete. The barns have been used for research, broilers, pullets, and cage-free layers previously. Any of those options or others like cattle feeding or indoor growing are possible future uses also. The area of the barns has many other buildings and structures that aid in the production of the barns. Each barn has 2 feed bins that each hold 18 tons. There are 2 diesel ran backup generators on the property to ensure power during outages. There is an egg collection house on-site that includes an egg packer, a refrigerated storage room, and a load-out dock. Equipment for the cage-free layers is in 3 of the barns currently but hasn’t been maintained for several years. There is a heated well house that includes a restroom, a manure shed, a composter, and a storage/maintenance shed that includes feed mixers.

The land consists of 25 +/- acres currently in crop production. 33 +/- acres of grass which includes a small amount of trees and a steel pipe working pen for working up the cattle herd. The majority of that land is already terraced and could easily be put into production if someone wanted more crop ground. A 14 year old manufactured home sits on 2.5 acres on the property with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. As you can tell from the makeup of the property, it has all the layers needed to be a nice income-producing farm on many levels, pure investment with on-site residence for the facility manager, working the farm yourself and rent the home out, or simply farm the land and rent out the barns and home. So many different options with this one. You won’t find many properties like this that include land and a home with production barns.
