This peaceful and private 2-bed, 1-bath home with a basement is perfectly nestled in a quiet country setting. The completely remodeled home features spacious rooms with tall ceilings, ample closet space and a functionally designed kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, and an abundance of cabinet storage. As a bonus the home also offers a sizeable attic for storage. Located just a short hop to the interstate, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds: quiet country living with quick access to all amenities, 15 minutes to Decatur and 30 minutes to Springfield.
The property is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, offering plenty of space for horses, livestock, ATV riding, building a dream playground for the kids, gardening, and enjoying the concrete patio with a fire pit. Adjacent to the home is a finished 30 x 48 outbuilding that features heating and A/C, a spacious tiled room with a gas fireplace perfect for entertaining (with space for a pool table), as well as a shop/garage area for hobbies, parking, or exercise equipment. It also includes an attic and closet storage, along with a separate tiled room designed for a hot tub. The two-stall horse barn also provides parking and equipment space, while two separate pastures, a paddock and a loafing shed are excellent for keeping horses. The corn crib offers plenty of storage for hay, implements or your tractor. The functional chicken coop is completely fenced, great for egg production and includes a separate room for feed or raising chicks.
Throughout the property, you will find fruit trees such as plum, apple, pear, mulberry, cherry and thornless blackberry bushes that produce gallons of berries each year. Nut trees include pecans, English and black walnuts, American chestnuts and hazelnut bushes. Grapevines with trellises, an asparagus patch, two raised beds, and ample space for a large garden provide additional benefits.
Recent updates within the past 5 years include a new roof, exterior paint, updated fencing, well pump, and stainless-steel appliances, making this home move-in ready. Whether you seek a quiet retreat, hobby farm, or simply the rural lifestyle, this charming country property offers it all.
