This is a picturesque Hobby/Cattle Farm along the breathtaking Battle River Valley~a landscape where the rolling hills meet a winding river below and the farm and ranch life set the pace.This exceptional, HARD TO FIND small-scale cattle farm offers the perfect blend of natural beauty (with frequent wildlife and your own hunting grounds) functional design, and rural tranquility. The current owner currently runs approx. 24 pairs, 5 horses, and 2 bulls. There are also shelters and fencing ready for sheep and chickens as well.
