Escape to the peace and privacy of country living with this exceptional 8-acre property, conveniently located outside the flood plain and just a mile from the city limit and 3 miles to downtown. Owned by the same family since the mid 1900s, this cherished homestead features a custom home built in 1999, replacing the original family farmhouse while preserving the property’s rich history. The spacious country kitchen offers custom cabinetry with convenient pull-out shelves, solid surface Corian countertops, a center island, pantry and abundant workspace for gathering with family and friends. The vaulted main-level primary suite provides private access to the backyard and features dual sinks, a relaxing spa tub, and a large walk-in closet. Tons of parking and wrap around driveway.

The well house offers additional storage and currently houses the tractor, which is included with the sale. Be sure to discover the enormous hidden storage area accessed through the upstairs bedroom closet above the garage.
