Welcome to this exceptional 48.12-acre property, offering the perfect blend of comfortable living and impressive equestrian facilities. The charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home provides a cozy retreat, complete with all the essentials for everyday living. A detached 2-car garage with front storage space and a walk-through door offers ample room for your needs. Equestrian enthusiasts will love the thoughtfully designed 10-stall horse barn, updated in 2023 with a new framework. It features a concrete center aisle, a new tack room, and a new feed room with a roll-up door for easy access. The fully lit pipe arena is ideal for evening practice, equipped with a push chute, head and heel boxes, rope stripping chute, return alley, and an announcer's stand ready for your finishing touches. A newly built (2023) vet room, complete with electricity and two stocks, ensures the well-being of your animals. For additional storage and workspace, the property includes a shop with concrete floors, two 12' x 12' and one 12' x 14' roll-up door, along with a walk-in door—perfect for equipment and projects. Centrally located on the property is a new 5-stall mare motel, featuring a feed room, roll-up door, and concrete floors. The spacious 12' x 16' stalls offer 8' of covered space, and the paddock is surrounded by new fencing with net wire and double gates. The back pasture includes a new 2023 loafing shed, perfect for separating animals. Additionally, an older 5-stall structure with two covered pens and an old storage building adds even more functionality. The property is fully fenced and cross-fenced, making it ideal for livestock or future development. It even features an older high-fenced area that could be restored. This rare find combines a spacious country retreat with all the amenities to support an active equestrian lifestyle, located on a paved road and close to town for basic conveniences. This property truly has it all, with room left for your own finishing touches!
