Description
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!

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHaving come from a big city, the kids at this middle school seem well behaved for middle school standards. No horsing around allowed during pick up. Staff seems to be courteous. Other than that, the education quality is far behind bigger cities. A huge concern is that it's not a closed campus. At this day and age, more should be done to keep schools safe with at least, closed gates. Also, pick up is always a nightmare, as lines can be lengthy, and nothing is done from administration to improve it.Parent Review3y ago - Veterans Memorial High School
