Description

This is a great investment opportunity for anyone looking to start or expand a hog operation. Whether you're involved in 4-H or run a large show pig operation, this property offers plenty of room to grow. The property features multiple large and small buildings that are ideal for livestock, storage, or equipment use. The main FS-built structure measures 30’x56’ and is equipped with power and water. With the addition of some metal, this building could be converted into a garage or storage shed. Just west of it sits a 60-foot truck scale with a digital readout, ready for operational use. The second additional post-frame buildings measure 40’x64’ each and include concrete floors, electricity, and 14’ overhead doors, offering excellent space for machinery or storage. A third large structure, a 42’x96’ shop and cold storage building, adds even more flexibility to the operation.

The property also includes a 9,000-bushel grain bin, which can be rented out to generate additional income. For livestock operations, there are three older hog barns of varying sizes that could be used again with some renovation. Most notably, a newer 40’x192’ nursery building is nearly turnkey and capable of housing up to 2,000 pigs, requiring only minor repairs. The entire property is powered by a 400-amp electrical service, and a tractor-run generator is included to ensure continued operation during power outages. Water is currently supplied by a well, but rural water is a possibility as the line runs along 2420 East Road.

In addition to the functional buildings, the land includes 13.5 acres currently planted in corn, offering the potential for crop income. Just north of the cropland are 8 acres of woods, providing recreational space or room for future expansion. At the heart of the property sits a two-story brick farmhouse built around 1876. This historic home is constructed of three layers of brick and offers approximately 2,376 square feet of living space. It includes three bedrooms—two upstairs—and three main-level rooms, including a large, open kitchen. The living and dining rooms both feature fireplaces and 10-foot ceilings, adding charm and character. The home has had some updates, including a metal roof installed in 2020 and replacement windows added in 1989. It has previously been used to house hired hands whose children attended either the Casey or Charleston school districts, both of which may still be options due to the property’s location on the boundary line.

With a strong mix of usable buildings, productive farmland, and a livable historic home, this property offers multiple income and expansion opportunities. Whether you are an experienced producer or looking to get started in the hog industry, this property provides the infrastructure, land, and location needed to succeed. Don’t miss the chance to make this versatile operation your own—call the listing agent, Adam Crumrin, for more information or to schedule a showing.
