New York | Nelliston | 202 Dairy Farms

Central Montgomery County – 2 Story colonial  limestone home overlooking the Mohawk Valley situated on a 202 Acre dairy farm.  The farmland has been tiled throughout, mostly Mohawk silt loam soils, 170 tillable acres of darn good land, gently-sloped to rolling terrain, presently rented, with 27 acres more of pasture and 5 acres woods.  It is located at the end of the road, yet within walking distance to town. Views are everywhere. A stream is at the back.

The original two-story barn is 80×80’ attached to a newer one-story 36×120’ barn.  A total of 120 stalls throughout the barn include 49 4’ tie stalls, 56 swing and wooden stalls, tie rails for heifers, as well as a 20×36’ addition with 5 large pens.   The milking equipment includes a 2” Surge pipeline with 9 units, a 1000 gallon bulk tank with plate cooler.  Tunnel ventilation, cow mats, 2 Patz barn cleaners to an enclosed and insulated spreader area all add to cow comfort.  A barn bridge allows you to drive into the spacious loft. There are two 20×70’ concrete stave silos equipped with unloaders in a spacious silo room, and a concrete barnyard and concrete laneways to the pasture. You never get enough cement and this one has it.  Additional buildings include a 30×80’ enclosed machine shed, a 50×80’ open pole barn for even more equipment storage, a 20×25’ garage used as a shop, as well as 5 smaller outbuildings.   

The home includes 3500 sq. ft. living area with 15 rooms, 6 BR, 2 baths, kitchen, an 8×22’ enclosed porch, and two outside stone porches overlooking the neat and well-kept grounds and the broader Mohawk Valley. It enjoys hot water heat and has a drilled well as well as public water. One side of the home is fully modern, but the other side needs updating.

Asking price of $780,000. $13000 taxes. Listing  #1157 could be combined to make a larger operation totaling 348 acres with ~300 tillable, all outstanding land and in an excellent state of cultivation. This is a prime agricultural area to build on and farm, a place with a future and the ability to grow.  Contact Larry Casler at 315-823-2970.
