A rare opportunity to own over 9.5 private, heavily wooded acres just outside of Columbia! This property is in need of a complete remodel and is best suited for a buyer ready to take on a substantial renovation project. The brick ranch offers a spacious footprint with three main-level bedrooms, including a primary suite with private bath, a large kitchen, attached garage, and sunroom overlooking the wooded surroundings. The unfinished walkout lower level includes a half bath and additional space with potential for future finishing.
The land itself offers a unique recreational opportunity! There is a limited amount of level ground immediately surrounding the home, with the remainder of the acreage consisting of dense woods, rolling terrain, and numerous ravines. This rugged landscape could be ideal for creating ATV or side-by-side trails, exploring, and enjoying the outdoors. Please note that the driveway is steep and may require a four-wheel-drive vehicle during winter weather or other challenging conditions. A large detached shed provides substantial storage for equipment, recreational vehicles, or workshop use.
Buyers should be prepared for a full interior and exterior renovation and understand that much of the acreage is rugged, wooded terrain rather than level, usable yard space. Priced with its condition in mind, this property presents an opportunity for investors, renovation enthusiasts, or recreational buyers seeking privacy, acreage, and the potential to create something truly unique. Bring your vision, your tools, and your sense of adventure!
Outside, the expansive acreage provides the space and seclusion that are increasingly difficult to find, while an enormous detached shed offers outstanding storage for equipment, recreational vehicles, hobbies, or workshop space.
This home is ready for renovation and priced with its condition in mind, making it an exciting opportunity for an owner-occupant, investor, or anyone searching for an affordable way to create their dream property on acreage. With more than 9.5 wooded acres, tremendous storage, privacy, and room to add value, the possibilities here are hard to match.
