Property Info

Description

Welcome to W8940 County Road B, a picturesque 35.43-acre farmette located just outside of Browntown in Green County, Wisconsin. Set against the peaceful backdrop of the Pecatonica River, this unique property offers a harmonious blend of fertile farmland, country charm, and natural beauty. Whether you're seeking a weekend retreat, a hobby farm, or a long-term land investment, this offers a tranquil lifestyle with income-generating potential. 

The classic 1,755-square-foot farmhouse, dating back to the early 1920s, offers timeless appeal and solid craftsmanship. Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting layout with two spacious bedrooms and one full bath. A cozy sunroom and adjacent patio provide the perfect vantage points to relax and take in the scenic views. The home is equipped with central air conditioning and a propane forced-air furnace, offering year-round comfort. A built-in one-car garage adds both convenience and storage. 

Approximately 30 of the total acres are tillable and currently leased through February 2028, generating $7,800 in annual income. The primary soils include Fayette and Palsgrove silt loam with an impressive NCCPI rating of 64.2. The gently rolling terrain enhances both aesthetics and drainage, making this ground versatile and productive. 

Outbuildings include a 25x50 machine shed, ideal for storing equipment or serving as a workshop, and a 32x154 dairy barn. The barn, although in poor condition and excluded from contributory value, offers potential for restoration or creative repurposing for future agricultural or recreational use. 

Bordering the winding Pecatonica River, this property invites you to embrace a quieter way of life with room to roam, farm, or unwind. Easy access to local highways and amenities makes this a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of rural Wisconsin while still staying connected.
