Rare opportunity to own nearly 32 acres of secluded country property, conveniently located close to everyday amenities! This unique property offers the privacy, natural beauty, and versatility that are increasingly difficult to find. Built over 125 years ago, the charming two-story home is filled with character and offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a 2-car attached garage, and numerous updates while retaining the warmth and character of an older farmhouse.
The home features beautiful hardwood floors, oversized custom-style door, window and baseboard trim, and a welcoming country porch accented by updated columns.
Updates include roof, siding, well, HVAC, and porch columns, providing important improvements while preserving the home's original character.
The real magic of this property begins outside. Approximately 2 acres surrounding the home and outbuildings provide the residential setting, while the remaining acreage offers a remarkable combination of mature woods, wooded ridges, natural hollows, running creeks, open pasture, and established trails. Wildlife is abundant, with deer, squirrels, and other native wildlife frequently seen throughout the property. Mature catalpa trees line the driveway and add to the property's established, timeless appeal.
Three separate pasture areas offer numerous possibilities for livestock, horses, 4-H projects, recreation, or future homesites, subject to applicable approvals. Trails wind throughout the property and provide opportunities for horseback riding, ATV/UTV use, hiking, hunting, and exploring. The creek corridors and natural terrain also provide multiple potential locations for a future pond.
Whether you're looking for a private country homestead, recreational retreat, small farm, hunting property, or a place where family and generations can enjoy the outdoors, this property offers an exceptional combination of privacy, acreage, natural beauty, character, and possibilities—all just minutes from town.
