This charming ranch-style home features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, offering cozy living surrounded by beautiful countryside. The home includes a spacious kitchen with a casual dining area, a large master bedroom with a big walk-in closet, a generous formal dining area, and a nice-sized living room. No country home is complete without a large utility room/mudroom, perfect for country living. As you step outside, you'll find the perfect back porch to enjoy relaxing evenings while watching abundant wildlife on your property. The outdoor amenities include a newer 34' x 60' pole building and a conventional barn measuring 24' x 36' with a loft. Attached to the barn is a 16' x 36' enclosed lean-to. Venture onto the 113 acres and discover a beautiful pond ideal for fishing, with ample space for a camper or cabin. The property features 46 tillable acres, with 16 acres currently enrolled in CRP. For hunting enthusiasts, the layout is ideal with hidden fields surrounded by woods. Recently set up trail cameras have already captured a variety of wildlife, including a stunning drop tine buck—a testament to the promising deer genetics on the property. This is one of the most picturesque farms I've had the pleasure of walking, and as a realtor who visits many farms each year, that says a lot. Reach out to schedule a visit—I can't wait to show you why this place is so special!
