Location, Location! Enjoy the best of both worlds—conveniently close to town yet tucked away in a peaceful, secluded setting on beautiful acreage you’ll love coming home to. Relax on the back deck and unwind to the soothing sounds of the creek below. Inside, the main level welcomes you with warm wood and tile floors and a spacious kitchen offering plenty of counter space for cooking and entertaining. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms with newer carpet provide a cozy retreat for the whole family. The lower level offers even more flexibility with a generous space featuring a private exterior entrance—perfect for a home office, studio, or hobby room—plus a full bathroom for added convenience. Outside, you’ll find a detached garage/storage building—ideal for vehicles, tools, or your favorite projects. Bonus: Brand-new roof in 2025 for peace of mind and lasting value! Acreage at this price is hard to find—don’t miss your chance to own this rare combination of privacy, space, and convenience. Act quickly, as the owners plan to remove the listing in early November to use the house as a short-term rental if not under contract.

Location, location, location! This cabin is five minutes from Hwy 25, but has the seclusion you want to come home to at the end of the day. Enjoy the sounds of the rushing creek from the back deck. Great space in the lower level of the home for a recreation area and/or office work space. Creekside area of property has power hookup for camper. Nearly level lot at the top of property with beautiful winter views would make a great building site. Rough cut road nearly to top of property. With a little TLC, this property has great investment potential.
