OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED FOR 9/29/24Tucked into the timbered hillside, this private home and acreage is located amidst the iconic Loess Hills in northern Harrison County. The home features a modern kitchen, open dining room, and large family room with a wood-burning stone fireplace. The three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms add to its comfort. The front of the home has an east-facing covered porch that is the perfect place to have a cup of coffee, catch the sunrise, and listen to the songbirds start their day.The large detached garage has two overhead doors and room for two vehicles, tractors, lawnmowers, UTVs, or any necessary "toys" that any acreage needs. On the east side of the garage is an insulated and heated workshop with built-in cabinets, shelves, and work benches. This space is great for tool storage, woodworking, crafts, hobbies, and more.The land that this home is built on is extremely diverse. Although it's just less than 25 acres, this property feels much larger. A 2.5-acre hay field in the northeast corner of the farm could be seeded down to alfalfa, planted into a cash crop like sweet corn or pumpkins, or converted into an organic vegetable garden. The balance of the farm is mature Loess Hills timber. This timber is a balanced mix of red oak, white oak, burr oak, red cedar, and towering marketable black walnut trees. This timber provides excellent habitat for whitetail deer, wild turkey, and several small game and bird species. A main north/south running ridge creates a nice elevation change on the property while protecting the home location from the prevailing west and northwest late fall and winter winds. This ridge is also ideal for a treestand to intercept deer as they move back into the property from the surrounding crop fields.This property has been traditionally used as a primary residence. Still, it could be an excellent weekend getaway, second home in the country, Airbnb/VRBO rental, or high-end hunting camp. Located along the Loess Hills Scenic Byway and minutes from 1000s of acres of public land and recreation areas, this home is in an ideal spot for an outdoor-focused owner.To learn more about this property and its endless possibilities or to schedule a private showing, call the Land Specialists and Listing agents.
