About This Home

Welcome to a truly unique property in Union County—where custom craftsmanship, peaceful living, and endless possibilities come together. Tucked at the base of Mount Emily Recreational Area and just minutes from town, this 20.5+ acre retreat offers a rare blend of privacy, practicality, and charm. The main home is a beautifully crafted two-bedroom, one and a half bath log house with an open floor plan and custom woodwork throughout. The oversized bedrooms offer plenty of space and comfort, and the large mudroom/laundry area adds convenience for everyday living. Every detail feels thoughtfully designed to create a warm, welcoming space that blends rustic character with modern comfort. Outside, the land is just as impressive. A year round creek with water rights runs through the property, and a productive artesian well provides a reliable and abundant water source. The park like setting includes mature landscaping with established walking paths, flowers and water features. You’ll love spending time on the patio or deck, both offering peaceful views that overlook the Union County Fairgrounds ponds. Whether you're looking to homestead or just want room to spread out, this property has it all. There's a large fenced garden, an oversized chicken coop, multiple storage buildings, and a nearly 7,000 square foot shop/barn with flexible space for work, hobbies, or events. Facilities for livestock are already in place, making it easy to bring your animals and get started right away. For added value and flexibility, there’s also a second dwelling located a healthy distance from the main house—perfect for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. Plus, with multiple zoning designations, the property is suited for a wide range of uses, offering plenty of opportunity to make it your own. This is a rare find in Union County—a peaceful, one-of-a-kind property that feels like a world away, yet is conveniently close to town. Come see all it has to offer!
