Rare Mount Vernon acreage offering 9.5 acres of usable land with a move-in-ready, renovated home and exceptional future build potential. Perfect for buyers seeking a Mount Vernon acreage with room to add a large shop, build an estate-style home, or expand a hobby farm, this property delivers flexibility that’s increasingly hard to find. Quietly positioned just off a short gravel road, the setting provides privacy, mature trees, and rolling pasture—while remaining only minutes from Mount Vernon and Highway 13 for quick commuting and daily convenience. The fully renovated home features refinished hardwood floors, a bright open-concept living and dining area, and a stylish kitchen with custom cabinetry, farmhouse sink, and scenic countryside views. Updated mechanicals within the last year offer peace of mind. The main level includes a bedroom plus a flexible bonus room ideal for an office or guest space, while the upper level provides two additional bedrooms and a half bath. Outside, a two-stall garage and nearly 10 acres of pastureland create endless opportunities for livestock, recreation, hunting, or future expansion. Abundant deer and turkey, mature tree lines, and open space make this property a true Linn County acreage opportunity.

AG
Agricultural District
Agricultural areas AA designated on the land use map are intended to maintain or enhance the viability of agricultural operations in such areas by restricting the proliferation of noncompatible uses and protecting high-value agricultural land, while allowing pockets of infill development in appropriate areas. This is achieved through the design of the LESA system scoring, which awards points sparingly and has a high threshold score for development approval. The agricultural area goals are also achieved through the UDC zoning density requirement for lots, which generally requires a 35-acre minimum for agriculturally zoned development, and through the minimum levels of service MLS standards. For more information concerning how the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan relate to each zoning district refer to Table 107-147-3 at the end of article VII of this chapter.
