Description
For Sale: Isadore Farm, a 22.5 Acre Certified Organic Farm and Energy Efficient Home
Isadore Farm is a 22.5-acre Certified Organic vegetable and perennial fruit farm located in Leelanau Co., MI, near the small town of Cedar in the Glen Lake SD. The site is perfect for a medium-sized organic farm, with a short drive to busy farmers markets every day of the week during the growing season. The farm is less than 5 miles from Lake Michigan at Good Harbor Beach in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore and 15 miles from Traverse City. The rolling property has wide-open views of the Cedar Valley and Sugarloaf and could be split into three additional building sites, each with a wonderful view.
Home: 1650 square feet. Built in 2009, the house was designed to be very efficient, incorporating many elements of passive solar design. Most of the glazing is concentrated on the tall south wall, giving a great view of the farm while allowing the winter sun to heat the poured concrete floors. This massive solar heated concrete slab, combined with the super efficient wood fired in-floor heating system (with propane back-up) and closed cell foam insulation allows the home to be heated on ~4 cords of wood per year. The house also stays naturally cool in the summer. While built to be very energy efficient, the home also has a heat recovery ventilation system to ensure indoor air quality. The roof is made from commercial grade standing seam metal and the siding is cement board for easy maintenance.
The home has an open floor plan, with beautiful exposed beams, cathedral ceilings and a large second floor loft. There are 2 bedrooms, including the loft, and one bathroom. A large open kitchen with an island, commercial range and quartz countertops makes entertaining easy.
Farm: The property includes a 1300 sq. ft. stick built barn with a 250 sq. ft. walk in cooler for vegetable processing and cold storage. Nearby there is a 200 sq. ft. root cellar for winter storage of vegetables. A 600 sq. ft. greenhouse with propane heat is used for propagation of vegetable starts. All buildings are less than 6 years old.
The farm has over 5 acres in a permanent bed system. The entire property has been certified organic with the USDA since 2009. A double electric fence surrounds all beds for effective deer control. The soil types range from sandy-loam uplands to thick organic muck-type soils perfect for onions and celery. After years of soil testing and organic amending the beds all have exceptional fertility. Each of the beds is served by a 2 inch irrigation header set up for drip irrigation, with the water provided by a powerful 5 inch agricultural well. Large perennial plantings of 6 varieties of raspberries (both summer and fall bearing), 6 varieties of blueberries and asparagus are included. The terrain, location and soil type are also ideal for wine grapes, table grapes, hops and fruit trees. Reliable breezes make this property a strong candidate for wind energy as well.
The home and farm are offered at $399,000. This includes the profitable business, website, name and much more. This is a turnkey opportunity for someone looking to farm, or the perfect Leelanau homestead.
