If you're dreaming of peaceful country living with the convenience of being just a couple miles from town, this scenic acreage offers the best of both worlds. Nestled on 20.91 acres of hay meadow/pasture with a spring-fed creek, this property is ideal for the small hobby farmer, rancher, or anyone craving space, privacy, and rural charm.
The spacious 1,980 sq. ft., 1.5-story home features 5 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, with an unfinished basement for added potential.

Step into the home through the front door into spacious living and dinning areas showcasing a stunning original wood staircase with decorative newel posts and square spindles. A set of clear glass French doors separates the office/den/hobby room from the dining room. Off the dining room, the kitchen features lots of cabinet and counter space with a peninsula island perfect for sit-up dining. You'll love the remodeled main floor bathroom, boasting a walk-in tile shower, oversized tub, and his-and-hers glass bowl sinks. A spacious main floor laundry room also includes a convenient half bath and ample cabinet space.
Recent updates include new carpet installed in 2025, a new septic system in 2018, furnace replaced in 2023, and a new water heater in 2025.

Adding to its functionality, the property includes three cattle watering sites, covered draw, a natural spring-fed creek, and a shelterbelt along the north side of the property providing excellent wind protection and added privacy, enhancing the peaceful, country feel of the property.
