There’s a rhythm to country life that can’t be rushed — a peaceful stillness you feel the moment you pull off the main road and onto your own land. And that’s exactly what this 13+ acre property offers: space, privacy, and the kind of views that make you stop and breathe a little deeper.
The story of this land is one of freedom — no restrictions, just open skies and room to live how you want. The upgraded livestock fencing means your animals are secure from the start, and the large stock pond is more than just pretty to look at — it brings life to the property, attracting deer, birds, and offering a cool, quiet spot to reflect or cast a line in the evenings.
Set back from the road and surrounded by wide-open acreage, the home itself feels like a retreat. With over 1,600 square feet, it’s just the right size — spacious without being overwhelming. The island kitchen is at the heart of the home, opening to a great room where everyone can gather around. Natural light pours into the dining room through the bay window, framing the landscape like art.
Out here, you wake up to birdsong, not traffic. You make your own rules, and you can watch the stars without city lights getting in the way. Whether you’re dreaming of having space to roam, or simply finding a place that feels like yours in every way — this property offers the perfect beginning to your next chapter.
