Beyond the main residence, the property offers substantial additional improvements, including a **detached two-car garage with a large loft/apartment area**, barns, and a separate 20' x 40' block and metal building with an overhead door accessible through an additional parcel.

Approximately 7.3 acres are zoned R-1, with additional acreage outside town limits identified as AR and RSI zoning, creating a property that deserves to be explored not only for what it is today, but for what it could become. Whether envisioned as a magnificent private estate, multi-generational compound, property with agricultural or equestrian possibilities, or an investment with potential future subdivision, this is a truly distinctive offering. Privacy, acreage, substantial improvements, quality construction, water features, outbuildings, and potentialall in one remarkable property.
