Travel up the private drive through your own orchard and discover this exceptional income-producing acreage just minutes from Pleasant Creek Park. This expansive ranch welcomes you with a covered front porch, spacious foyer and an open-concept living room that flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining areaperfect for entertaining and holiday gatherings. The kitchen features a generous walk-in pantry, while the four-seasons room opens to a low-maintenance Trex deck overlooking the property. Nine-foot ceilings enhance both the main and lower levels. The impressive primary suite offers abundant natural light, an oversized walk-in closet and a spa-like bathroom. The walkout lower level provides endless possibilities and is ready to finish with plumbing for two additional bathrooms and space for two bedrooms. A safe room offers ideal space for storage, canning or a wine cellar. Accessibility features include ramps and extra-wide doorways. Outside, a large shop/barn, multiple pasture areas and approximately 60 tillable acres provide opportunities for horses, livestock, farming or homesteading. An additional approximately 15 acres is leased for solar panels, generating more than $1,000 per acre annually, with potential tax incentives. Properties offering this combination of recreation, agricultural income and accessibility rarely become available!
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.
