La Valle, Wisconsin, USA

pic1756_5.jpg128 Acre recreational, hunting, hobby farm or year round residence situated 20 miles from the Wisconsin Dells not far from the town of Reedsburg (Butter Capital of Wisconsin) and located near the border of Sauk and Juneau County. This area of south central Wisconsin has an abundance of wildlife whitetail deer, turkey, grouse and rabbit and the most beautiful rolling landscape with hills, bluffs, creeks, pastureland and forests left after the glaciers from the last ice age moved through.

A 3 bedroom homestead was built of solid oak from trees cut on the property in 1973. The old homestead built back in 1888 is still standing to be admired from the pioneer days along with a very large hay and straw barn with the old milking parlor down below and a wood and machinery shed. Two very deep wells that go down into limestone bedrock supply ample water for both the homestead and livestock.

pic1756_4.jpgThe property has 60 acres of tillable land with pastures and forests of giant Oak and Maple Trees. In 1976 a further 500 Walnut trees were planted for the  (1776-1976) bi-centennial celebration. A creek that runs through the property flows into the spring feed Lake Redstone; a 4.5 mile long lake filled with bass, bluegill and perch located only one mile from the homestead. 

Many different types of grain can be grown on this rich fertile soil including corn, wheat, oats, barley, soybeans and even buckwheat. The abundant rains allow  between two to three hay crops of alfalfa and red clover. Maple syrup water was and can be tapped from the giant trees on the property to make Maple Syrup.

Over the years this property has been a milk farm, cattle ranch and horse ranch and livestock raised includes cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, chickens, ducks and geese. The farm is currently producing an income of approximately $10,000 US annually from the rent of the homestead and land. Yearly taxes are around $2,400 US. However working the land would bring in much higher income. 

This property has been professionally appraised as recently as 2000.

Asking Price: $425,000.00 US
