There are ~40 acres of well-maintained hayfields and pastures, with some fenced fields used in the past for horses. A 46' x 38' steel barn, with hayloft, was built in recent years to house horses, and is currently being used for the breeding of suckling pigs. The remainder of the property is mostly forested, with a majority of the forestland enrolled under real Property Tax Law 480a. 480a allows for the reduced tax assessment of qualifying forestland and subsequently lower school and property taxes for the long-term engagement of proper forest management.
