It Sold and Now the Search Begins

It appears our house in Louisburg has sold and we will be moving in March. Next weekend, Feb. 11th and 12th, we are going to be looking at about 10 properties with the prayer that God will show us where He wants us to farm.

Here are the ones that interest us most.

11 acres and 2 homes in a remote setting yet just minutes to town or to the lake. 2 bed room 1 bath main house has a family room, screen porch, concrete patio. There is a guest house that needs finishing just a stones throw away. Both have great country views. Priced to sell by a motivated seller.








PRIVACY! 36.88 acres of timber and pasture with a stream, 3 bed room home, shed, on a solid gravel road just minutes from Versailles. Great fire place! New well and septic. Needs some TLC








Move in condition. Large kitchen with gorgeous oak cabinets. Split bedroom floor plan, wood deck, concrete slab ready for garage or workshop. Too many great amenities to mention. Must see.









6+/-Acres, Historic Home, Large, Solid, Dairy Barn, Fenced Pasture! This 1930's home has been wonderfully maintained with many original features! 4 bedrooms, 1 bath, central heat & air. Covered front porch to relax & entertain! The large dairy barn is built of solid oak & still has the 8 stall milking parlor with stanchions! It has 3 stables, a feed room and a loafing area with hay rack. The large hay loft can store plenty of hay or you could have an old fashioned Barn Dance up there! The fenced pasture has such heavy, thick grass you can hardly walk through it! Large shade trees dot the pasture & provide a shady resting spot for horses, cattle or any grazing animal. Walking distance to stores, school & city park! Take a look today!

Nice country farm house on 8 acres close to the lake lots of out buildings.












This adventure began several years ago but being the slow learning guy I am it has taken me a while to catch on to what God wanted of me. I can't wait to begin to work with my wife in restoring the lives of others.

Please take the time to ask God to make it clear where He wants to serve. This farm is the dream He planted in our hearts and we want to be where He wants us to be. We can make any of these work but we are sure there is a place that will best bring Him glory and that is where we want to be.

  1. The third house might be a great pick. Every house there has an abundance of nature and a lot of trees. The third has the slightly unique factor of a wide open space at the front, which is quite nice. That open space provides a lot of ground for moving around, or alternatively, it's a space with a lot of potential waiting.

  2. Thanks for your comment. We visited each of these and none have worked out. We saw an 11 acre piece of property today that looks promising. We will share the photos once we have made an acceptable offer and have the contract signed.
