Property Description
Rare opportunity to own approximately 40 acres of prime agricultural land with established infrastructure and a proven history of diverse use. This expansive property offers a mix of open farmland, orchards, and multiple agricultural buildings, creating flexibility for continued farming operations, ag-based business ventures, or future development opportunities (subject to township approval). The land has previously supported a seasonal haunted house attraction, demonstrating its capacity for large-scale events, parking, and visitor traffic, while still maintaining its agricultural integrity. A commercial-grade parking area of approximately 3 acres with crushed asphalt and a commercial driveway provides valuable functionality not often found with agricultural properties. Improvements include multiple barns and outbuildings of varying sizes and construction dates, offering options for equipment storage, livestock, workshops, or ag-related operations.
