About this House
What's unique:Corn cribGorgeous piece of landBeautiful countryside views
Rare opportunity to own a rural 12.5 acres sitting up over your beautiful countryside views with a very cool watering hole and stream below. This property currently includes a home that needs major TLC, 2 barns, a corn crib, and an additional shed. The listing value only represents the land and the outbuildings. One of the barns appears to be in disrepair, and you should enter at your own risk,as it may be unsafe. This whole property will be parceled off to include the 12.5 acres that you see illustrated in the photos. This will be done prior to closing. There is no way to access the home yet..however, seller is working on getting a key. You can look inside the windows at this time. This really is a gorgeous piece of land that you can renovate the existing home, or build your dream home on. There are additional acres that the buyer may purchase as well: the 25.78 acres of (mainly) ag land on the other side of the creek for an additional charge. Don't miss out!
