Nestled on 19.5 beautiful acres in Houston County, this property offers two homes, a workshop, a barn, and a lifestyle that is ready to go from day one. The main home is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat with an attached two-car garage and a sunroom with sunset views. A spring-fed, stocked pond sits just beyond, and mature trees are scattered throughout, giving the land natural character and shade. Walking trails wind across the acreage, and a portion of the property is already cleared for row crops or livestock. The current owner has spent years setting up permaculture systems across the property, a philosophy built around working with nature rather than against it. That means established fruit trees producing pears, figs, peaches, blackberries, and more. It means double-dug permanent raised garden beds, a rain barrel water system for the chickens, composting, windbreaks, and microhabitats designed to attract and support wildlife. No chemicals, no synthetic fertilizers, just a property that has been thoughtfully built to sustain itself. Deer, foxes, owls, hawks, blue herons, hummingbirds, ducks, and more birds than you can count call this place home. The second home was designed with efficiency in mind: propane shower and range, solar attic fans, and thoughtful insulation and energy considerations, with the infrastructure already in place to add solar panels. The well water has been professionally tested; the results are available upon request. This property is ready for you!
