COMMENTS: Please review supporting date for the history of this farm. The property has many uses. The home is perfectly livable right now. For several years the Kerr Foundation operated this farm as a bed and breakfast, but their status as a non-profit entity became an issue so this was discontinued. Being right on a 4 lane highway it would certainly be good for this purpose. Here you can grow fruit, vegetables, run horses or cattle plus supplement your income with a bed and breakfast.
