If you have been searching for the perfect blend of country living, proven hunting ground, and income potential, this 130-acre property checks every box. At its heart sits a 2,241 sq. ft. home with 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a half bath, and a mother-in-law quarters. The original home was built in 1947, and a thoughtfully designed addition was added in 2006. The home has been meticulously maintained and shows exceptional pride in ownership and it's nothing short of immaculate. The 672 sq. ft. dry basement offers excellent storage, space for a workshop, or a place to keep your hunting gear organized. The setting is private and peaceful, tucked back from a lightly traveled county road. You will not see a neighbor in sight from your front porch, yet you're less than 4 1/2 miles from I-70 for easy access. Two creeks flow through the property, Clear Creek, and Turkey Branch, providing an excellent water source for all wildlife. The farm features a mix of timber and tillable acreage. The tillable is currently being cash rented at $9,000 annually. Those same crop fields also serve as a natural buffet for the local deer, helping keep them close all year long. This farm is no stranger to big bucks; its proven buck history speaks for itself. With water, food, bedding, and cover all in one place, it has been a producer year after year. The 4-acre yard surrounding the home offers plenty of space for outdoor activities and gatherings, while the large front porch is the perfect place to watch the sun rise or set, and wildlife all at the same time. Whether you're looking for a hunting property, a peaceful country retreat, or both, this one delivers. This farm is turnkey and ready for its next owner.
