About This Home

As of September 2025

This beautiful 1-acre lot is conveniently located between Watson and Effingham on Highway 37. The ranch home features a completely new septic system and updated gas lines. The HVAC system was installed in 2008, but it is reported that the central air is currently not functioning. The basement foundation has undergone some recent repairs. The home is currently occupied by tenants on a month-to-month lease, paying $750 per month. With some renovation, this property could become a lovely residence on a picturesque one-acre piece of land. This home is being sold as-is.
