Gorgeous 1+ acre lot with orchard and surrounded by several dozen fruit trees. Grapes, strawberries, and thornless blackberries also grow on the property. Both the orchard and garden produce thousands of dollars of fruit and vegetables in a single year making for a backyard supermarket. With rising produce costs due to inflation, this covers/insulates against about 80-85% of the cost of during the growing season. If fruit and vegetables are canned, dehydrated, or preserved, they can last well into the next growing season. Only a few blocks from K-12 schools. Quiet neighborhood with a nice view of the fireworks on the 4th of July. There is also a small tool shed on the property. The original property is 6 lots. The two adjoining properties (4 lots & 3 lots respectively) were also purchased, the old homes demolished, and the land has been rehabilitated to grow fruit trees and a garden over the last several years. The properties were consolidated into a single property in 2017 to simplify the tax process. There are 32 lots on a city block in Marceline so the property covers nearly a half a city block. There is enough open land behind the orchard to build another home or even a shop on the property if desired. The home is wired for gigabit-speed fiber internet. An energy-efficient furnace was installed in 2020. The lights have also been replaced with energy-efficient LED lights. There is also plenty of space and privacy between other neighbors since it is the only home on the side of the block it sits on. Other benefits of this location include law enforcement who live in the neighborhood, police patrols, and fantastic neighbors who keep their yards well-maintained. All buyers must either be pre-approved for a loan through the bank or have sufficient funds to make the purchase. Documentation showing proof of this is required. All serious offers will be considered. Cash buyers preferred.
