About this home

Dreaming of Farm Life? This 3 bdrm, 2bth beauty sits pretty on a hill where you'll enjoy gentle breezes all year long. It overlooks the rolling pastures where the cattle graze and the ducks play in the picturesque pond. The wrap-around porch calls you home and welcomes your guests into the cozy great room, featuring a centralized fireplace, while the primary suite sits to one side of the house lulling you away to restful bliss, while the roomy guests' rooms are dissected by the roomy guest bath. The island kitchen overlooks the scenic views of the back of the home, supporting the household goods for those wholesome meals. Bring your Livestock. The property is fully fenced and cross-fenced with plenty of space to store the tools to keep a busy farm moving. Bonuses include, covered pavilion with a fire pit for entertaining. A shed to store the RV or trailers. And a farm is not complete without a 20 x 35 barn, with stalls and leans. A generator easily plugs in to the designated 50 amp plug to keep things safe and going during power outages. Schedule your private showing today and experience all that this exceptional property has to offer.

The most beautiful land you will ever want to see! These views will make you think you are on vacation. This house sits atop of this hill overlooking the pond, new barn and beautiful pastures. The wrap around porch assures you that you won't miss a single view. The property is cross fenced and great for cattle or horses, etc. Well maintained, clean, and adorable! You will love the spacious living room and cozy fireplace. Split floor plan for privacy with large closets. There is a hayfield that produces hay on this land and a rather large pond. If it's country living you are looking for, you will love this dream scene! Secluded and a nice wooden fence at the entrance of the driveway for your grand entry! You must see to appreciate this hilltop view!
