About This Home
Country property with potential on 7 scenic acres! This solid home offers great structure, spacious living, and the chance to create your dream rural retreat. While the home could use cosmetic updates, flooring, paint, and some extra love, the hard-to-find combination of acreage, strong bones, and two large outbuildings makes this property a rare opportunity. Whether you’re looking for a homestead, workshop space, storage for equipment, or simply room to spread out and enjoy the outdoors, this property delivers endless possibilities. Bring your ideas and make this property your own! Offered at $245,000.
