About this home

Looking for a stunningly beautiful, peaceful, private setting…this is it!! 2 bed/2 bath home overlooks tranquil pond and is ready for your updates & designer touches. Master en-suite down, second bedrm w/ bath up. Large living/dining room with wood floors; open breakfast/bar/kitchen; lots of high & vaulted ceilings; French doors open to multi-level deck overlooking pond. The rooms are spacious with really great storage and closets. The metal equipment barn has a separate room that would make a handy office, hobby room or art studio. Both home and barn are steel constructed. The land is gorgeous w/ mix of live oaks, post oaks, white oaks, cedar and pine trees. And there’s a bonus…if you have ever wanted a landing strip there is a 3200+/- foot long pasture that lends itself to that!!! Great location, only 5 miles to charming New Ulm and 16 miles to historic Columbus! Enchanting setting! On quiet dead end rd. In an estate, selling 'as is/where is'. Buyer will need to obtain new survey.
