Property Description
First Time Ever on the Market! Opportunities like this don't come along very often. Built in 1959 and lovingly held by the same ownership ever since, this classic 2-bedroom ranch sits on nearly 2.5 acres of open space and possibility. The home offers that solid mid-century feel, with a comfortable layout that's ready for its next chapter. Outside is where this property really shines. A large pole barn--previously used as a mechanic's shop--features roll-up doors on both ends, making it perfect for projects, equipment, vehicles, or a small business setup. Whether you're a hobbyist, car enthusiast, or just need serious workspace, this building is a huge bonus. With room to spread out, plenty of privacy, and a property that has been cared for over generations, this is a rare chance to own a piece of land with character, history, and incredible potential. Come see it for yourself--properties like this don't stay secret for long!
