OFF THE BEATEN PATH BUT ON THE GRID! Situated in Stuart's area of Hughes County but within the Calvin Schools boundaries, you will find a diamond in the rough. This exceptional property offers a blend of rural living and modern convenience. Spanning 20 expansive acres with an adjacent 2.5-acre parcel included, this is the countryside escape you want. The welcoming 1,470 square foot home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The living area features a pot-belly wood stove to keep those cold winter days at bay, while the kitchen has plenty of countertop space for your weekly meal prep. This home has seen its share of love—and smoke. Previously a haven for an indoor smoker, most walls have been treated with Kilz, offering a blank slate for your personal touch. This means you have the perfect opportunity to roll up your sleeves, grab your favorite paint colors, and make this home truly yours. Think of it as a fun, hands-on project for personalizing every corner! Step outside to discover numerous amenities: a detached 2-car carport for convenient parking, a 20x20 metal storage building with concrete flooring, and a 30x50 metal shop with concrete flooring, electricity, and lofted storage near the rear - perfect for hobbies or business ventures. For travel enthusiasts, an RV hookup is ready to accommodate your adventures. Safety and peace of mind are boosted with an in-ground storm cellar on the property. The land is a true outdoor paradise, featuring a pond and creek, providing serene views and recreational opportunities. A charming circle drive adds to the allure of this beautiful setting.
