The home offers 3 bedrooms on the main level, a full bath, a bright 3-season porch, front deck, and a large living room addition that feels made for everyone. The finished lower level brings even more space with another living room, full bath, laundry/mechanical area, and 2 nonconforming bedrooms. Then there’s the part that really sets this place apart. The property includes an oversized 2-stall detached garage and a 30' x 27' barn with a 30' x 9' lean-to, 3 stalls, including a foaling stall, and an automatic waterer. There’s also a chicken coop already in place. Horses, chickens, livestock, projects—or simply having plenty of space around you—the possibilities are wide open. Recent improvements include a new furnace, AC, and ductwork for improved air circulation throughout the home. This is a property with character, space, and plenty of potential. Selling as-is. Come take a look—you may just find your little piece of country. --Eliza Ghabel Edge Realty Group 319-430-7320
