DREAM FARM for agriculture, livestock, and hunting. PRICED FOR QUICK SELL!
This gorgeous farm is situated on 176 acres m/l with open pastures, hay fields, small pond, three barns, corncrib, two sheds, detached 4-car garage with second floor, and a beautiful spacious two story home. Three rolling fields are fenced in with treated lumber for livestock pasture, the flat bottom field has been used for hay production, and is absolutely breath taking. It is not uncommon to see fifty deer in the evening as well as other game like squirrels, rabbits, quail, wild turkeys, fox, etc.
The upper barn, which includes twelve stalls, has been built with the Ohio State University Veterinary Clinic in mind when it comes to the design. Each stall consists of block walls, rubber matted floor and automatic water system. This massive barn is approximately 80 feet by 100 feet with a second floor for hay storage, which is approximately twenty feet tall, can effortlessly store up to fifty thousand bales of hay. The floor is made of hard wood and does make a super place for barn parties. We have held many events including, weddings, birthdays, retirement parties with a band and catering for meals as well as fun dancing. If an individual is interested in business ventures, the second floor could be made into an apartment complex for additional income. We currently have a stable business and all stalls are currently rented that generates additional income. Another consideration could be adding an apartment to the second story in the upper garage. There are many avenues one can take to make additional income or profit from this exceptional farm.
The bottom barn has a rustic look from the old country days having a silo and a second loft as well for hay storage. The barn has concrete floors with a small center dirt arena. There is a supplementary concrete pad on the outside right of the barn for easy access of heavy equipment. This has been rented to horse boarders, goat herders, sheep, mules, donkeys, cattle, and other numerous types of livestock.
As one can see, there are many avenues a person can take to make this an exquisite home as well as produce income. The property does have approximately one mile of road frontage where the upper pasture borders. If a person adventured, they could also make additional lots and sell this to pay for the farm in total.
A primary business adventure is the land has an underground river called an aquifer that has enough water to supply the entire county with water or one could start their own water bottling company. A well was drilled 100 feet deep to conduct the capacity of refilling after pumping out which was extremely successful; the rate of refill was faster than what could be pumped. This means there is ALOT of water avilable. The Teays River runs through Chillicothe, Ohio where they also receive their water. You can see this is a profitable farm where one can retire and enjoy the fullness of a beautiful setting.
Prior to the advance of Pleistocene glaciers into Ohio beginning about 2 million years ago, a major river system flowed from its headwaters in North Carolina northward across Virginia and West Virginia and entered Ohio near Portsmouth. The river, known as the Teays, flowed northward to the vicinity of Chillicothe were it swung northwestward across western Ohio, then westward across Indiana and Illinois, where it joined the ancestral Mississippi River. When an early glacier advanced into Ohio, it blocked the Teays River, forming an ice dam that created a large lake (Lake Tight) in the former river valley in southern Ohio. When Lake Tight eventually began to spill over a low divide, a new drainage system was created, thus ending the long reign of the Teays River. Glacial sediments filled in the old valley of the Teays in western Ohio, but deep-water wells and other data have outlined the course of this buried valley, which is up to 400 feet deep in some areas.
Chillicothe marks the southward limit of glaciation in central Ohio, and the valley of the Teays disappears beneath glacial sediments (drift) at this point. However, by means of water wells and other data, the buried Teays valley has been traced beneath the glacial drift northwestward across Pickaway, Fayette, Madison, Clark, Champaign, Shelby, Auglaize, and Mercer Counties to the Ohio-Indiana border. At the Ohio-Indiana border the valley of the Teays appears to be continuous with a buried valley that has been traced westward across Indiana and Illinois, where it emptied into an embayment of the ocean, now occupied by the Mississippi River. In Ohio, this buried valley is up to 2 miles wide and in some areas lies beneath more than 500 feet of glacial drift.

Ground-water aquifers
One of our most valuable resources is the water beneath our feet - something you can't see and may not even know is there! As you may have read, most of the void spaces in the rocks below the water table are filled with water. But rocks have different porosity and permeability characteristics, which means that water does not move around the same way in all rocks.
 |
When a water-bearing rock readily transmits water to wells and springs, it is called an aquifer. Wells can be drilled into the aquifers and water can be pumped out. Precipitation eventually adds water (recharge) into the porous rock of the aquifer. The rate of recharge is not the same for all aquifers, though, and that must be considered when pumping water from a well. Pumping too much water too fast draws down the water in the aquifer and eventually causes a well to yield less and less water and even run dry. In fact, pumping your well too fast can even cause your neighbor's well to run dry if you both are pumping from the same aquifer. |
In the diagram below, you can see how the ground below the water table (the blue area) is saturated with water. The "unsaturated zone" above the water table (the greenish area) still contains water (after all, plants' roots live in this area), but it is not totally saturated with water. You can see this in the two drawings at the bottom of the diagram, which show a close-up of how water is stored in between underground rock particles.
Sometimes the porous rock layers become tilted in the earth. There might be a confining layer of less porous rock both above and below the porous layer. This is an example of a confined aquifer. In this case, the rocks surrounding the aquifer confines the pressure in the porous rock and its water. If a well is drilled into this "pressurized" aquifer, the internal pressure might (depending on the ability of the rock to transport water) be enough to push the water up the well and up to the surface without the aid of a pump, sometimes completely out of the well. This type of well is called artesian. The pressure of water from an artesian well can be quite dramatic.
