This 97 acres range has been used as a horse pasture, a 12 acre high yielding , fertile crop field, and as a commercial investment for the large gravel deposit now beginning to be mined.
This property is fenced into 2 pastures for separated grazing and pasture rotation. There is a +/- 16’x16’ rustic cabin plus attached 16’x16’ open fronted stable. Electric power line crossed the property at the cabin. A well supplies water to the cabin, an automatic stock water, and a frost free hydrant.
There is indoor plumbing to a septic system. The 12 acre field could be seeded to grass for increased grazing or hay production or continued as a producer of cash crops.
The topography includes several hills that provide natural protection for livestock and well protected building sites.
The very substantial gravel deposits, if analyzed by an engineering firm, possibly could have value exceeding the asking price for the properly. At present, Treasure County has a 10 year lease to mine the gravel from 7 acres. The lease ownership and royalties would transfer to the purchaser.
