Looking for that smaller acreage in the country but still close to town? This one just might suit your needs. Great location right on Dewey Rd! 2 Bedroom, 1 Bath home situated on just under 3 acres. Property features 2 outbuildings and a brand new septic system installed in 2022. Would make for a great little hobby farm. Remodel the current home or build your dream home in the country. Close to the amenities of Centerville and just a few miles from Sharon Bluffs Park. This one is worth checking out!
Located just a mile off of pavement this 2 bedroom 1 bath home is ready to be renovated. This property is situated on 2.8 acres m/l and has a very neat older barn that could be used for a few farm animals or for storage.
