The gentleman has owned it since 1987 and worked on it for about 15 years before that. 

It is 84.5 acres.  It is fenced on the perimeter.  It has a pole barn about 24x40 enclosed on 3 sides.  It has a well and water distribution at 4 locations for livestock.  It has a spring feed pond.  We have ordered a metal building, 30x50 with a 12x50 overhang on the back. 

It is a place that we will build on and then sell our current home.  We will get the required interior fencing up and move the animals first.  Then probably live in the storage building until the house is finished.

This is standing on the site of the future house.  Real close to the middle.

Very nice  :likebutton:

Atkinsmatt:
Thanks everyone. Spending several hours on the Bush hog is the first step. That allows final siteing of the house, storage building and barn. Then the work starts.  This place has many big live oaks on it. Several are very large. As in It would take at least four people to reach around.
