About This Home

As of August 2025

Country Comfort Meets Practical Design - 10+/- Total Acres, 2800 sq ft (1400 up & down), Full Basement w/elevator, 40x24 Pole Barn & More! Tucked back off a rural road, this 2011 custom-built home by Barr Construction offers the perfect blend of peaceful seclusion and thoughtful design. Nestled on 5 acres with an additional 5-acre parcel "just over the hill", this property gives you the best of both worlds-room to homestead and your own private hunting or recreational ground. You will notice the expansive covered porch, ideal for unloading groceries or relaxing in the shade. Inside, you'll find an open-concept layout with a spacious living room, dining area, and efficient galley-style kitchen. Beautiful hardwood floors, trim, cabinetry, and solid wood doors throughout the main level create a warm, cohesive feel. The main floor features 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The primary suite includes a large walk-in closet with a secondary storage space, while the second bedroom offers convenient washer/dryer hookups inside the closet-plus an additional set in the basement for flexibility. The full walkout basement includes a third full bathroom, utility sink, under-stair storage, and two separate utility rooms. A 750 lb. elevator provides easy access between levels, and the basement is partially finished-ready for your customization. There is also a nice set of stairs that are wide and manageable. Outside, you'll love the recently reworked driveway, leveled yard, and the versatile pole building with garage and workshop areas. The property is equipped with energy-efficient geothermal heating and central air for year-round comfort. Whether you're looking for a peaceful forever home, hobby farm, or a private retreat with space to grow-this one checks all the boxes. Clay Electric, North Clay Schools, Well water and private septic. Additional 5 acres is landlocked therefore no program or secondary market loans will be allowed. Property is being sold AS IS WHERE IS, as this was grandmother's home and POA has not resided in it. .
