Picture waking up to 10 acres of beautiful country views, watching the leaves change, enjoying the first snowfall of winter, and spotting deer in the backyard. If you've been looking for a quaint home with land and plenty of possibilities, don't let this one pass you by! This property has so much to offer, so keep reading for all the details! The 10 acres offer a great mix of open space and scattered trees, giving you those peaceful country views without being completely wooded. A pond adds even more charm, and when summer rolls around, you'll have your very own in-ground pool to enjoy. There's also a small fenced-in area with a shed, perfect for chickens, a garden, pets, or whatever you have in mind. The property offers two separate covered carport areas. One is attached to the oversized one-car garage/workshop, while the second sits beside a large concrete pad ready for your future pole barn. Inside, you'll find 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, along with a convenient laundry area. The spacious living room flows into the dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable layout for everyday living. Off the back of the home is a covered and screened-in porch, the perfect spot to sit back and take in the views. There's also a front driveway providing additional parking.

10 acres. Country views. A pond. In-ground pool. Plenty of storage and workspace. And a cozy home to call your own. There's a lot to love about this property, and even more potential to make it your own!
