A Rare Opportunity in a Storybook Setting – Just 7 Minutes from the City Nestled on a gently rolling 2.6-acre corner parcel, this charming rural retreat offers a picturesque blend of pastoral views and practical features—all just a short 7-minute drive from the city. Surrounded by open fields, mature trees, and expansive skies, the property captures the essence of peaceful country living with the convenience of nearby urban amenities. The landscape is straight out of a postcard, complete with a partial picket fence, classic clothesline, and unobstructed views of gently swaying farmer’s fields and endless horizons. Anchoring the property is a character-rich two-level barn, featuring a poured concrete floor on half the main level—perfect for use as a garage—while the remaining space offers flexibility for a stable, workshop, or storage. The upper level is a large open-concept loft, ideal for a hobbyist, artist, musician, or as an imaginative retreat for children. The main home, while in need of cosmetic updates, has had many important improvements including a newer furnace, hot water heater, septic system, and a brand new well pump—providing a strong foundation for future customization. Inside, the main floor offers an open-concept living and dining space, a spacious kitchen ready for a modern reimagining, and a full bathroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms and an additional bath. This is a rare chance to enjoy the best of both worlds: serene country living with city convenience. A perfect canvas for your vision—whether you're dreaming of a homestead, weekend retreat, or a creative countryside escape.
