Refreshed price over 7 acres of peaceful living. Discover modern homesteading on 7.7 picturesque acres, where country charm, self-sufficiency, and modern convenience come together. From the expansive wraparound porch, enjoy mature oak and maple trees, a peaceful creek along the rear property line, and a producing orchard filled with pecan, apple, peach, pear, and persimmon trees. A dedicated garden, pasture, fenced animal areas, chicken coop, and bunny house make this property ready for your mini-farm dreams. Designed with sustainability in mind, the new pole barn is equipped with a substantial solar array connected to an advanced Sol-Ark inverter, new subpanel, and four 4.8 kWh backup batteries. The system automatically supplies essential circuits during outages, including the refrigerator, freezer, well pump, lights, and select outlets. The home operates entirely on solar power during daylight hours, with the seller reporting electrical savings of more than $300 per month. Inside, fresh paint, soaring ceilings, and gleaming hardwood floors create a bright, welcoming atmosphere. The spacious kitchen features granite countertops, generous prep space, a sunny breakfast area, and stainless-steel appliances, including a brand-new refrigerator and dishwasher. Additional improvements include new plumbing, stylish light fixtures, a remodeled half bath, and new exterior window shutters. Large, airy bedrooms offer plenty of flexibility for family, guests, or a home office, while installed Starlink internet helps keep you connected. Qualified buyers who use the preferred lender may receive waived origination fees and a one-year rate buydown, subject to lender terms and approval. Whether you're harvesting fresh fruit, tending animals, gardening, working in the new pole barn, or enjoying the security of solar-backed power, this special property offers country living with sustainability at its core.
