The property came complete with a tiny older mobile home that would be our humble home for 10 years as we saved to build our dream home. Originally, we thought we would build a house in 6 months to a year after moving in.  Boy were we wrong!  But we cleaned it up, fixed a few things and it ended up being quite cozy and we made it our own.  As we started out farming with basically nothing, not spending a bunch of money on building a house left us with a bit of cash to buy everything else we needed, like sheep and hay equipment!  Our on-farm store now occupies the spot where the old mobile home used to be.
