Property Description

Welcome to 6.55 rolling acres of timber, prairie, and a rare stretch of the scenic Rock Run Creek running privately through the heart of the land—creating an unparalleled sense of privacy and natural beauty. Perfect for livestock and hobby farming, the land features a diverse landscape that effortlessly attracts abundant wildlife. It’s a setting that feels like a retreat — an outdoorsman’s paradise. One owner ranch offers 3,560 fin sq ft with a full walkout layout designed to frame the stunning landscape from every angle. For effortless indoor outdoor living, the sunroom features a striking wall of glass sliders that open directly to the front yard. Nearby, the heart of the home is built for cooking and conversation—a spacious kitchen that transitions seamlessly to the deck, which serves up the property’s true million dollar view. The main level hosts 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, while the fully finished lower level offers incredible flexibility with a private den and a second sunroom, perfect for a creative studio or whatever you desire. A mowed path guides you down to the creek, where the land is partially fenced. Spend your days by the water under the built-in awning, and evenings gathered around the firepit. Excellent outdoor infrastructure is already in place, featuring multiple garden sheds and a versatile 25×35 shed equipped with a haymow, a nearby hydrant, and overhead doors on each end. Rounding out this hobby farm is a stable, easily accommodating six stalls, offering a premier setup for horses, goats, or livestock. The views, space, and possibilities don’t come along often.
