About This Home

As of December 2024

If you are looking for a secluded cabin full of wildlife, woods, and crop land surrounding you then you might want to check this absolute GEM out. The landscaping is amazing as the yard is well manicured and has approximately 35.16 acres of ground that comes with this sale. This one bedroom cabin can have a second level built on top as the roof sits on top on the basement walls or there would be plenty of room to build another permanent home on this spacious acreage. Don’t hesitate or it might be too late for this one as acreages go fast.
