By now, you’ve likely read about the family strife that has taken over the Roloffs as a result of Matt’s decision to sell a portion of his farm.
Earlier this year, the father of four announced on Instagram that he was putting 16 acres of this famous property on the market.
“It’s time to move toward the next season of life,” explained Roloff in May.
The decision wasn’t easy for the Little People, Big World star — and it hasn’t come without backlash.
Most notably, Zach Roloff stunned followers with a public rebuke of his dad.
He slammed Matt as cowardly and manipulative for the way Matt handled this business, presumably because he didn’t give Zach (or his twin sibling, Jeremy) a fair shot at taking over the farm.
Matt has argued otherwise.
But Amy Roloff has expressed her disappointment in Matt as well, and the whole thing has simply turned very ugly.
We’re not here to delve any farther into this family feud, however.
For the purposes of this article, we’ve tracked down the official listing for Roloff Farms — courtesy of Forbes Global Properties — and we’re here instead to offer up some rare glimpses of the land for sale.
“The 100-year-old farm with stunning views of rolling hills, green landscapes and coastal mountain ranges, has an incredibly rich history,” reads the description on the aforementioned company’s listing.
“Owned by just three families over the past century, the property sits on 16-acres, fortified with fertile soil ideal for growing pinot noir grapes, blueberries, pumpkins and all manner of fruit trees such as apple, plumb, cherry and peach.”
As you can see via the photos above and below, these 16 acres are simply gorgeous.
The main farm house is 5,373 square feet in size… with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, along with five bedrooms and five bathrooms and a six-car garage.
There’s a nearby barn with a studio apartment and private entrance.
As the website reads, “the property grounds can best be described as an elaborate fantasy land for children.
“Some of the whimsical installations include a full-scale pirate’s ship, a western town complete with a jail, bank, sheriff’s office, general store, hotel, and blacksmith’s shop modeled after Knotts Berry Farm and a German-inspired medieval castle.”
Yes, a Western town (above).
And, yes, a pirate’s ship (below).
“I have dedicated much of my adult life to creating an imaginative environment filled with adventure for my family,” says Matt Roloff on the list.
“I have decided the timing is ripe, after 30-plus wonderful years, to hand over the reins to the next owners of this magnificent property to plant some roots of their own and watch them grow.”
It’s beautiful.
As far as we know, the farm remains on the market.
Matt still lives on the many other acres of the property — but, as you can tell by the way this listing concludes, pumpkin season is likely over for the Roloffs as a family…
An outdoor enthusiast’s dream, the property also features expansive trails — great for mountain biking, motocross and all-terrain vehicle activity — several acres of greenspace and seven bridges that connect the unique amenities of the farm.
In addition, a large piece of the land, once home to a lucrative pumpkin patch, is well equipped for any number of commercial ventures.
From the equestrian lover to aspiring wine maker, the property offers endless possibilities for the next owners to make it their own.
