Are you looking for an absolutely amazing setting to build your dream home? This is the place! It is just outside the city limits, yet 2 minutes from Main Street or Hwy 158. This 9.7 acre piece of heaven has several building sites. The first is near the front of the property nestled in a clearing, backing to a creek and a bluff of towering trees. You can also build midway up the hill in the middle of the trees and you would access this from the shared driveway. Or finally, at the top of the shared driveway you will see a large clearing surrounded by trees on 3 sides which would make an ideal building site. This lot also has a 30 x 40 outbuilding with concrete floor. The workshop side of the outbuilding has a heated floor, wood burning fireplace, half bath & loft. the other side is concrete floor, loft and is great for storage. The outbuilding does have electric. Shared road maintenance agreement 50/50 cost oil & chip every years. There are county restrictions only.

A2
Agricultural/Single-Family Residential District
The A-2 Agricultural District of Monroe County recognizes that some of the land indicated for agricultural purposes in the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map will not be farmed because of a variety of conditions including topography, karst terrain, flooding, wetlands, vegetation, man-made facilities and barriers, including essential services and public facilities. Further, that all areas of high agricultural productivity in the County have not been designated in the Comprehensive Plan and zoned exclusively for agriculture because of existing urban development. This district is primarily for areas undergoing transition from agriculture to more intensive residential uses, to serve as a buffering district between the A-1 and the residential districts.
