Enjoy peaceful country living just minutes outside of Auburn. Situated on 10 beautiful acres, including approximately 2 currently tillable acres, this spacious property offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and opportunity. The home features 6 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, along with a 2-car detached garage for added flexibility and storage. The primary suite is thoughtfully tucked away from the rest of the home, creating a true retreat complete with its own private deck—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the quiet surroundings. A full unfinished basement provides endless potential and is already plumbed for a fourth bathroom, with space to add an egress window—ideal for future expansion, a guest suite, or recreational area. Major updates add peace of mind, including a roof just 2 years old and updated electrical and HVAC systems (2019). With open land, modern updates, and room to grow, this property offers the space and serenity of country living with the convenience of nearby town amenities. Selling as-is

Unbelievable opportunity to own a spacious home on acreage just minutes from Auburn! Proudly situated by itself on 10 sprawling acres, this ranch has 5-6 bedrooms and 3 baths with approx. 3,000 sq ft of living space. The unfinished basement area has plumbing roughed and an egress window primed for a 7th bedroom and 4th full bath. 8 of the 10 acres are being leased to a local farmer, the lease amount will transfer to the new owner. Custom finishes throughout including oversized master with walk-ins and custom bath, new electrical and HVAC 2019, newer roof, slated tile and choice finishes abound. Too much to list. Outbuilding a plus and plenty of unfinished space for storage. Pre-inspected, selling as-is. Set up your showing before its gone!
