Property Description
Busy M Farm is a working cattle farm and has been in the family since the 70’s! Busy M Farm was a very well-known cattle ranch raising Gelbvieh cattle for many decades! One of the most notable features of the farm is the historic B.B. Gentry home, built in 1883. This 4 bed, 1 bath, 2,260 square foot home is one-of-a-kind! The farmhouse is in great condition for its age and features characteristics you simply cannot find in today’s homes!
The farm consists of approximately 170 +/- acres of pristine pasture and hay ground with the remainder in timber draws, barn lot, and a stunning homesite. With the farm being nearly 86% open grassland, you can maximize the number of livestock/acre you can run on this farm. With good fencing in place, cross-fenced into 5 separate fields, good grass, hay ground, multiple barns, a well, and 2 Ritchie cattle waterers, this farm is turn-key and ready for livestock! If you’re looking for a combination farm, a portion of the farm is terraced and could be put into crop production.
A home renovation would be a completely viable option, or if a new home is on your horizon, the home sits on a stunning build site that overlooks the farm! If you’re looking to split the farm and build multiple homes, there are many hilltop build sites along the 1 mile of road frontage this farm offers! This is truly a turn-key cattle farm that has been well cared for and has not been over-grazed. Contact Derek Payne at (573) 999-4574 for additional information or to schedule a private showing!
