    What's special

    Formal dining roomGranite countertopsGeothermal heating and cooling
    There is something about a half mile of gravel road that slows everything down. By the time the house comes into view, you already feel it. This is the one! Built in 1896 and sitting on 2.35 acres, this 1,940 sq ft 1.5 story acreage offers the peace and space people spend years searching for. Step inside to a kitchen that means it, hickory cabinets, granite countertops, and a layout made for real life. The formal dining room and spacious living area give everyone room to breathe. There is the 4 season room. Double doors open to the east facing deck where morning coffee becomes part of your daily routine. The attached 2 car garage includes one drive through bay, making it functional AND convenient. Geothermal heating and cooling keeps the bills low year round. Radon mitigation system installed 2022. The 1,536 sq ft machine shed is solid and ready to work, featuring double overhead doors with electric openers. A 16x20ft utility building rounds out the property for additional storage/workspace. Rural water plus two wells located directly south of the utility building. One well is operation while the other is non-operational. Water is not for drinking but is fine for all other uses. The water line runs only to the utility building. Fully fenced yard sits inside the oval drive. PCM school district. Minutes to Prairie City and Monroe. Easy access to Highway 163. This is acreage living done right!
