Here's an opportunity to be an integral part of Morgan County's unwavering commitment to preserve its historic structures and farmland. Situated on 1.88 parcel, this Fairplay Schoolhouse is surrounded by mature hardwood trees and pristine farmland. This property is one of Morgan County's last remaining historic schoolhouses. Built around 1898, this unique structure served as the community's schoolhouse until 1938. Under one family's stewardship, the Fairplay School served as a residence from 1953 until 2022. The metal roof was put on within the last 10 years. The Morgan County Conservancy purchased the property with its revolving fund and seeks to advise the next owner in restoring its original facade, while creating an interior space for modern living. Preservation restrictions will apply.

Agricultural Residential District
This district is designed to provide the landowner an opportunity to engage in limited hobby-type agricultural activities for personal use while maintaining a low density, rural, single-family residential character. Cluster design of subdivisions is encouraged and promoted in this district to reduce the installation of impervious surfaces such as roadways and sidewalks, provide large buffers for properties abutting active, large-scale agricultural operations, and to help provide for the protection of environmentally sensitive and culturally significant areas. This district is appropriate in a limited fashion in areas shown as agriculture, forestry,estate residential on the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan.
