When the working day is done, does the idea of heading home to a peaceful retreat in the country sound like your idea of paradise? If so, then you won’t want to miss out on this beautiful home and 9 +/- acres located less than 4 miles east of Fort Scott. Situated on paved Locust Road, this 2,242-square-foot home offers a well-thought-out design with 3 beds, 2 baths, a nice sized family room with fireplace, an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a cozy living room offering views to a fenced pasture just begging for a few horses or cows. Additionally, located just off the family room you’ll find two bonus rooms that could easily serve as an additional bedroom/office, or kept more in line with their current theme as hobby rooms for both sewing and leatherworking. Lastly, the attached 2-car garage has been converted into an entertainment space that has provided countless memorable moments with family and friends for the current owners. Rounding things out, you’ll find a nice, covered patio serving as the perfect place to unwind and relax at the end of the day. Located to the east of the house you’ll also find a nice-sized, two-room shop with an attached lean-to and chicken coop. The shop is currently used for woodworking, however, its future options are limited only to the imagination of the new owners. Surrounding the shop and fenced pasture you’ll be pleased to find a well-maintained yard with shade trees, pear, apple, and cherry trees, along with several blackberry bushes located next to a nice-sized garden. Properties like this don’t come around often. Don’t miss out on your opportunity at a slice of country paradise that truly offers it all!
Amazingly LOW utilities. Propane tankless water heater, central heat/air, wood fireplace, plus passive solar glazing. Lots of natural light from southern exposure. Game room finished in front portion of garage. Kitchen has granite counter tops. Outside water hydrants, covered patio with tile floor, French drains around exterior of house, RV hook up, power to barn. Exceptional home. Blackberries, grape vines, approx. 20 fruit trees (apple, cherry, plum, apricot). 3 BR's have "loft areas" not included in sq. footage.
