The Lake House, a main living fixture on the ranch, provides 11,500 square feet of space and an additional 3,800 square feet of porches and patios. It comes with a wine cellar, office, exercise room, cedar closet and a storm/safe room along with a number of other features.

The sale would also include all rolling stock, equipment, pickup trucks, hunting vehicles, farming equipment, furnishings, and bird dogs, according to the listing from Hall and Hall. However, items like personal property, livestock and Boone’s art collection will not be included. The livestock can be purchased separately and much of the art collect can also be bought.
