OPEN HOUSES Sunday, June 8, 2025, 1:00 - 2:30 PM Thursday, June 12, 2025, 4:30 - 6:30 PM Sunday, June 15, 2025, 2:00 - 3:00 PM Nestled on a sprawling 52 +/- acres and accessed via a private driveway off Beeson Road, this unique and versatile property offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking both comfortable living and serious functionality. The primary home is a charming 1,048-square-foot residence featuring two spacious 11' x 11' carpeted bedrooms connected by a walk-through Jack and Jill style closet. The single bathroom includes ceramic tile flooring and a tub/shower combination, and the home’s layout is designed for both practicality and comfort. The open-concept kitchen overlooks the carpeted living room, which measures 17' x 13' and provides direct access to a stunning 17.5' x 19' sunroom. This sun-filled space boasts large ceramic tile floors, vaulted cedar-paneled ceilings, Pella double-pane windows, a sliding glass door to the outdoor patio, and is air conditioned—making it a year-round retreat. Additional features of the home include a laundry room with built-in cabinetry and washer/dryer hookups, vinyl exterior siding, a Trex deck on the front of the house, and a composition shingle roof that may need some attention. While the home itself sits on approximately 2 acres, the entire property encompasses 52 acres—offering ample room for expansion, agriculture, or recreation. The property is well-equipped with essential infrastructure. Both the home and shop are connected to City water, ensuring reliable service for daily use. In addition, there are two domestic water wells located on the property. Neither of these wells supplies water to the home. The north water well was operational two years ago but currently requires some electrical work to restore function. The west water well is fully functional, and a new pump was installed in 2024, making it ideal for agricultural or auxiliary use. The property also includes two separate septic systems: one serving the home, and the other dedicated to the shop and RV stations, providing flexibility for multiple uses. For additional convenience, there are two RV hookups, each with water and sewer connections. What truly sets this property apart are the outbuildings and workshop facilities. The detached concrete block garage spans 34’ x 22’ and offers an oversized single-car bay, newer metal roof, and a brick storage room. A metal carport, measuring 12' x 12.5' x 34', is securely anchored to concrete footings and offers additional covered storage. Most impressive is the 40' x 75' BC Steel Building, a fully insulated workshop designed for heavy-duty use. It includes a 12' x 12' overhead door, natural gas radiant heat, a 9,000 lb. Atlas 2-post car lift (Model #9K0H), anchors in the concrete floor for automotive body repair work, 220-volt power, and both 30- and 50-amp power capacity for RVs or welding equipment, and an in-shop under floor vacuum system. The building also features a full bathroom with a stand-up shower and water heater, along with a 9-inch thick single-pour concrete floor built to handle significant weight and activity. Whether you’re a car enthusiast, craftsman, small business owner, or someone who simply desires privacy and room to roam, this property offers endless possibilities in a quiet rural setting. With livable comfort, exceptional outbuildings, and expansive acreage, it’s a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss.
