Welcome to 2096 280th St in Rippey—an opportunity to put your personal stamp on a property with good bones and room to grow. Sitting on approximately 2 acres (to be parceled off—the nicely mowed northwest corner), this home offers 1,120 square feet above grade with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, plus two non-conforming bedrooms in the lower level for added flexibility. The kitchen has some nice updates and is ready to go, complete with included appliances, and the convenience of a main-floor laundry room(washer and dryer stay, too). The main bathroom has been updated with tile, a walkin shower, and grab bars! Outside, you’ll find the property has awesome mature trees, offering shade, privacy, and a natural windbreak from strong north winds. Also, three corn bins—one scheduled to be removed due to storm damage—and plenty of open space for gardens, outbuildings, or just some peace and quiet. This one’s ready for someone with vision—whether you're looking to make it your own, flip it, or invest in a slice of country living- a solid home, big potential, and some elbow room to boot.
