Property Description

For over four generations, this remarkable 47.9-acre retreat has been a place where memories were made—where children learned to fish, hayrides became family traditions, bonfires lit up summer evenings, and the pace of life slowed just enough to appreciate what matters most. Tucked among rolling woods and open meadows, the property centers around a private stocked lake that draws an incredible variety of wildlife. Great Blue Herons glide across the water, deer wander through the trees, turtles bask along the shoreline and the man made turtle dock and ducks and Canada geese make regular appearances. When seasonal rains arrive, the lake's concrete spillway transforms into a picturesque waterfall, creating a scene that feels more like a private nature preserve than a homeplace. The well-maintained 3 bedroom, 3 bath residence overlooks the water, offering peaceful lake views from the front porch—a front-row seat to changing seasons, morning coffee sunrises, and evenings spent watching wildlife along the shoreline. Lovingly cared for and updated through the years, the home remains move-in ready while retaining the warmth and character that only time can create. Whether you're seeking a family retreat, recreational property, hunting getaway, weekend escape, or simply a place where nature still sets the rhythm of the day, opportunities like this are increasingly rare. Comprised of four parcels totaling nearly 48 acres, this is more than land - it is a legacy waiting for its next chapter. Come experience the quiet, the beauty, the night sky and the memories that have made this property special for generations.
