Live off-grid or create your own Airbnb retreat-this one-of-a-kind property is a dream for outdoor enthusiasts. Trophy bucks have been harvested here, and the land features a stocked 1/2-acre pond with a dock that is rarely fished, along with a private firing range. The home itself is truly unique-cozy, extremely well built, and powered by solar panels and a 250-gallon propane tank. Multiple heat sources include a wood-burning stove, gas wall heater, and a solar-powered mini split that also provides air conditioning. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas create a spacious feel. The kitchen is well appointed with granite countertops, tile backsplash, and a gas range, with space available to add a dishwasher and refrigerator. The gas water heater is located in the garage, where a laundry hookup could easily be installed. Both bedrooms are generously sized with closets, and one offers direct access to the bathroom. Outdoor living shines with a screened porch, fire pit, and additional storage for a lawn mower or equipment. The property includes 15-20 acres of tillable land, currently in rotation between corn and soybeans. A verbal agreement with a local farmer provides a 1/3 crop share, generating approximately $2,000-$6,000 annually. The home may be sold furnished-allowing you to move right in-or ready to be listed as a turnkey Airbnb income opportunity. Financing: Due to the off-grid setup, the property must be purchased cash or local lender.
