Description
Folks, if you’ve been searching for that turn-key livestock operation that checks every box, productive, efficient, beautiful, and ready to run from day one… then stop scrolling. This is the one. Nestled in the heart of Boone County, Arkansas, this 220-acre gem delivers the perfect blend of premium pasture ground, thoughtful infrastructure, and that unmistakable Ozark charm that makes you proud to call it home. Managed with decades of hands-on care, this property isn’t just a farm; it’s a legacy operation that’s been refined to near perfection. As you pull onto the property, you’ll immediately notice the rolling, gentle topography that defines this place. Ample level and usable ground flows beautifully across the landscape, providing easy access and workability while still holding onto those stunning Ozark ridges, hollows, and character that make the region so special. The land is fully fenced and cross-fenced with excellent 6- or 7-strand barbed wire that’s built to last. Strategically divided into seven wonderful pastures, this setup is a rotational grazing dream. Virtually every fence line is navigable by UTV or ATV, making daily chores, checking stock, or moving equipment a breeze, no more fighting rough terrain or overgrown lines. The grasses here tell the story of serious management. Predominantly fescue and Bermuda, with some Johnson grass and a rich mix of native species, the pastures boast superb stands of thick, healthy forage. Two large hay meadows crank out over 200 bales per year with ease, and the decades of rigorous attention have kept invasive weeds to a minimum. Thanks to impressive rotational grazing practices, you’ll enjoy plenty of grass for near year-round grazing. This isn’t guesswork; it’s proven results from someone who clearly knows what they’re doing. Water is abundant and reliable across every pasture. Springs, ponds, and automatic waterers (with some pastures featuring multiple sources) ensure livestock stay hydrated no matter the season. That’s a game-changer during those hot Arkansas summers or the occasional cold snap in winter. Numerous gates connect the pastures seamlessly, and everything thoughtfully “feeds” toward the crown jewel: an impressive working pen system born from years of trial and error. This setup is pure efficiency. An impressive catch pen with its own pond flows into a smaller catch pen equipped with an automatic water system. The pens feature electric options, a phenomenal automatic squeeze chute that handles everything from calves to large bulls, a sweep, multiple small holding pens, and three separate loading spots. Whether you’re running a cow-calf operation or just need to work stock quickly and safely, this system makes it happen. Beyond the livestock infrastructure, the improvements are equally practical. There’s a large metal hay barn with electric and water, a separate metal equipment and storage shed also with electric and water, and an old farmhouse complete with all utilities that could be used as storage or repurposed to a cabin. This is a fully functional, premium livestock farm that minimizes headaches and maximizes productivity. But this property isn’t all business. It showcases the raw, breathtaking beauty of the Ozarks with numerous year-round springs, small sections of gorgeous timber, and stunning vista views to the north and east. Imagine building your dream home on one of those high points, overlooking your private rolling pastures with mountain sunrises painting the sky each morning. That’s the kind of daily soul food that turns a farm into a lifelong passion project. Tracts like this, prime, well-managed, turn-key, and dripping with Ozark character, don’t hit the market every day. Whether you’re a seasoned rancher looking to expand, a family wanting a productive lifestyle property, or someone who appreciates land that works as hard as it inspires, this beauty in Boone County is something special. Give me a call today because a property of this caliber won’t last long… it’s the one you’ve been waiting for. Let’s make it yours.
