The second floor hosts two generously sized bedrooms, providing ample space for family or guests. With approximately 1,224 square feet of living area, this home is partially updated—much work has already been completed, including updated electrical wiring, although some final touches are still needed. Heating and air conditioning systems require installation, but the home remains cool in the summer thanks to the large, shade-providing trees surrounding it.

A standout feature of this property is the large wrap-around porch, perfect for enjoying the peaceful countryside views and the tranquility of your surroundings. There is also a small partial basement, which houses the hot water heater and a workspace for your projects.

Land Features:

This beautiful property is predominantly flat, with the northeastern corner gently sloping into a hollow. Almost half of the land is an expansive, lush pasture bordered by majestic hardwood trees, creating an inviting environment for livestock or gardening. The abundant wildlife in the area makes it perfect for hunting, with large deer and turkey frequently spotted on the property.

Location:

Nestled on a quiet country road, this home offers a serene setting surrounded by hardwood forests, cropland, and neighboring farms. The city of Edmonton is just a short 10 to 15-minute drive away, providing convenient access to local amenities while retaining the peace of rural living.

Utilities and Connectivity:

This property comes equipped with a functioning water well, although city water is available at the front of the house. Power is installed, supplied by Tri-County, and fiber optic internet is provided by SCRTC, ensuring you can stay connected while enjoying country life.

Flexibility:

With no use restrictions, zoning limitations, or building department oversight in Metcalfe County, you have the freedom to fully realize your vision for this property.

Recreational Opportunities:

For outdoor enthusiasts, the surrounding area boasts numerous fishing and recreational lakes and rivers, including Green River Lake, Dale Hollow Lake, Barren River Lake, Cumberland Lake and River, and Nolin Lake, all easily accessible within a short drive.
