Here it is, a quiet home on 12+/-acres of wooded solitude in Jefferson County! This property is just 2.5 miles south of downtown DeSoto along E Highway. Enjoy the harmonious sounds of nature right from the front porch, while still conveniently close to the essentials! The beautiful brick 2-bed, 1-bath home has its own well and septic system, an attached 1-car garage, and a partial basement with plenty of room for expansion. The home is well insulated and provides 3 heating options: forced air (propane), electric baseboard heaters, and a wood-burning stove. Don't miss the details of old-time craftsmanship and ingenuity found throughout this home: the arched doorway, the hand-swirled designs on the ceilings, or the design features that enhance energy efficiency. Just past the gated entrance is a wet-weather creek, perfect for use as fill at the site of the once-used pond. A 15' x 40' concrete pad lies alongside the driveway with water and sewer connections. Bring your RV or haul in a mobile home; this property is full of potential. An additional culvert and entrance from the highway is already in place near the southern border, providing an opportunity to subdivide. Near the northern border of the property is a small storage shed built with the lumber from the very property on which it stands. The gently rolling topography favors verdant views among the tall trees inside the property. Feel the tension melt away as you leave the blacktop and enter your own private getaway. Whether it's your weekend retreat, family rendezvous destination, or your daily "can't wait to get home", this is the perfect blend of rural America within minutes of town. NO restrictions 2.5 miles from downtown DeSoto Wooded oasis Beautiful views!
