LandProz is pleased to present the Masching Family Hog Site property in Dodge County, MN.

CONTRACT FOR DEED
Call for terms.
Infrastructure & Site
The entire 8.5 acres was tiled in 1996, ensuring zero water issues throughout the yard. Updated water and LP lines run to all hog buildings. A county ditch maintains building site drainage at just $40/year — a low-cost, long-term solution.
The Home
The Nordaas American Home was built in October 2001 and features a 28’x50’ layout with 1,500 square feet of living area, 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms, plus a full basement offering additional space and storage. A recently replaced steel roof adds long-term durability and low maintenance for years to come. The attached 3-stall heated garage (28’x36’), built in 1996, includes new openers and offers excellent storage and convenience.
The Shop — Built 2006
This 56’x60’ shop is as nice as they come. Features include 15’ sidewalls, a 14’ power lift door, LP heat, and a 6” concrete floor with in-floor heat. Ample storage and a generous concrete apron make this a dream workspace.
Cold Storage Shed — Built 2010
A well-maintained 40’x80’ cold storage building featuring 16’ sidewalls, a 26’ bi-fold door, gravel floor, and all-new LED lighting. In excellent condition.
Utility Building
A smaller building adjacent to cold storage houses a utility tractor and manure handling equipment.
Generator Shed — Built 2014
This purpose-built generator shed houses a 471 Detroit engine capable of producing up to 85 KW — enough to power the entire 8.5-acre operation. A critical backup asset that provides peace of mind and uninterrupted operation for the hog business.
Old Site Building
A 20’x80’, 8’-tall structure not currently in production but offering excellent potential as a calving shed or general farm use. Currently equipped with feeders and a 4’ pit.
