If you’ve been looking for a place to live in the country with plenty of recreational opportunities along with a return on your investment, then this is the property for you! On the 4.8 acre +/- homestead sits an approximately 2,400 square foot home which needs some TLC. There is a two-story 40’ x 40’ barn with concrete floors which could easily be set up to house livestock or utilized for storage. The upstairs is set up as living quarters with two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a kitchen. There is also an unfinished loft area which could be converted into an entertainment room or additional bedroom. This would be great for housing guests or could be rented out to someone for an increased return on your investment. There is also a 27’ x 25’ barn with a 10’ overhang which is already set up for horses. There are three stalls built with a concrete floor connected to two small pastures. There are 38.59 acres +/- of tillable acreage with an average PI of 125 offering a return on your investment. In 2017, the cash rent was approximately $4,900. The 2018 cash rent is expected to be roughly $9,000. On the south side of the property is 36.4 acres +/- of a mixture of mature and young timber. Much of the timber consists of maple and oak trees with some walnut trees. Cedar Creek flows throughout the timber providing a year-round water source for wildlife. The combination of the creek and rolling terrain creates several pinch points and funnels to set up on that deer of a lifetime! There is a strong deer and turkey population in the area along with squirrels, raccoons, and other game animals providing you year-round hunting opportunities. An established trail system runs throughout the timber allowing for easy and quiet access to and from your tree stand or blind. The trails would also be great for riding horses, ATV’s, or hiking. Properties with this much to offer in this area don’t come onto the market very often. Contact the listing agents to schedule your private showing before it’s gone!
