Nestled in the beautiful and historic Sweet Springs Valley this working farm spans the flat Valley bottom all the way to the top of Peters Mountain. This farm has hundred of acres of pasture and hay fields to provide for all types of agriculture as well as a stream and several springs. A large barn is conveniently located in the bottom land just off of Route 3 and provides storage and work space for the farm. The driveway for the farm is just across Route 3, is nicely paved, and leads up the mountain towards some of the higher fields. There is a cabin and several other barns on this main parcel of the farm which can be utilized for agricultural purposes. There are many good locations to build a home but there is a special one that sits on a level hay field overlooking the property that has the most spectacular view the farm has to offer. The view overlooks the whole valley and across many ridge lines into Southern West Virginia. As you travel further up the mountain the pastures give way to mixed timber land that climbs the ridge almost all the way to WV/VA state line at the top of the mountain. The opportunities that this property offers are nearly endless. From atv trails and horseback riding to hiking and hunting this property can provide it all. The size of the property alone lends to its special and rare nature. There are no other farms in Monroe County of this scale and caliber for sale.
