Property Description

Welcome to your slice of peaceful country living on 2.38 cleared acres. This property features two homes and a barn, offering endless possibilities—whether you’re looking for space for extended family, rental potential, or an investment with room to grow. The main home, built in 2016, offers a comfortable open layout with two bedrooms and two full baths, a spacious kitchen with plenty of cabinet space, and a bright living area with high ceilings. It’s move-in ready but leaves room for your own personal touch. The second home, originally built in 1945, has great bones and tons of character—ideal for someone looking to restore it, use it as a guest house, or create a cozy rental. Outside, you’ll find wide-open land with a rustic barn, storage shed, and cleared areas ready for livestock, FFA projects, gardening, or simply enjoying the quiet country surroundings. This is your chance to enjoy country living with space to breathe, all while staying within a short drive of town conveniences.
