Nestled in a peaceful, countryside setting, this almost half acre property offers an ideal opportunity for a future farmhouse or quiet homestead. The previous owner enjoyed a serene life with farm animals, embracing the rural charm. The structure on site was damaged by fire in 2025 and is no longer habitable; slab remains, but the buyer must demolish the structure. This is being sold as land only, priced accordingly. Do not enter the main structure for safety reasons. The property also includes small structures previously used for chickens and goats, and a storage unit, if desired. Bring your best offer—motivated seller will consider all!
