3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 100616463 MLS ⋅ ACTIVE Status ⋅ 1,554 SqFt. ⋅ 1946 Year Built
A Little Piece of Southern Living... A Rare Homestead with a Story to Tell Some properties are more than just a place to call home... they represent a way of life. This truly special, generational property is one of those rare and increasingly hard-to-find opportunities. Offering over 4 deeded acres of mostly level land, a peaceful pond, and a charming home nestled between Carthage and Robbins, this property captures the heart of country living. Imagine mornings spent tending to your chickens, collecting eggs, afternoons in the workshop, animals enjoying the open land, and evenings unwinding in the peaceful surroundings of your own little homestead. With a garage, workshop, hunting dog kennels, chicken coop, and additional spaces to explore, the possibilities here are as wide open as the land itself. Lovingly held by the same family for generations, this home carries a warmth and history that simply cannot be replicated. Originally built in 1946, and remodeled in 1995, and featuring a later addition of conversion of a porch into intended living space, the home offers a comfortable, welcoming flow and a sweet, relaxed atmosphere where you can sip your tea on any one of the porches. The original structure and subsequent improvements reflect the evolution of a home that has been cherished through the years. The home currently utilizes a wood-burning stove as its heat source, with window and wall units providing cooling. Propane heating may be reintroduced if desired. Buyers should note that the property may not qualify for certain financing programs without adjustments which the sellers may be open to consider depending on the circumstances. Whether you have dreamed of starting a small farm, creating a homestead, raising animals, gardening, having room for your hobbies, or simply enjoying the freedom and privacy of country living, this property offers a rare opportunity to bring those dreams to life. Properties offering this combination of acreage, an existing home, established outbuildings, a pond, and the flexibility to embrace a rural lifestyle are truly difficult to find. A little history. A little country charm. A whole lot of possibility. Welcome home to a way of life that is becoming increasingly rare. The later addition of the enclosed porch was not permitted, and buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence regarding the home's improvements and intended use. At one point in time a mobile home for a family member with it's own septic was on this property but has since been removed. Schedule a showing today or call to learn more. It is a home that is better in person than any photo or video can express.
