Description

Off-grid living at its best!  This property has 15 +/- Acres, a home, web wire fencing for a small animal or two, a couple of buildings to provide shelter, a stocked pond with fathead minnows, sunperch and channel cat for food, and also serves as an excellent water source for the animals, woods, and a few deer stands!  With this, you have an entirely off-grid home and land to live off!  This home has a 2,100-gallon rainwater catch system under the house; in the house, you have a filter system for the water and solar for the lights, which are 12 volts, water heater also runs off solar, bringing in 1,800 watts total on the solar, which is about 466 amp hours on your batteries without having to charge them, cookstove runs off a propane bottle, receptacle and refrigerator run off a generator most of the time.  There is a wood stove in the living room for heat with vents in the main floor's ceiling and the upper-level flooring to allow heat to rise and travel through the entire house.  Cooling is mainly with window ac units or just by opening the windows and letting a breeze blow through!  On the main level of this home, you have a living area, bathroom with a tub/shower, vanity, and toilet.  The kitchen has a bar area, a gas cookstove, and a refrigerator.  The pantry is off the kitchen and has tons of shelving with room for the water heater, washer, and solar batteries.  You will have another open sitting area and two bedrooms up the stairs.  This home has a lovely back porch deck overlooking the rear yard/wooded area.  On the front, you have an enclosed front porch.  For the hunter, have deer stands in the woods that will stay with the property.  Off the side of the yard, you have a couple of sheds, a web wire-fenced area for your small animals, and a pond.  This web wire encloses the entire property except about 5 acres, which consist of the driveway and the front yard, so if you have a furbaby, they can roam freely, and you do not have to worry!  The seller planted 300 pounds of wheat, which has fed the deer during the winter and is greening up just in time for spring turkey season.  As for the deer and bear, this property has them!
I have attached some photos of the latest deer and bear the sellers caught on their game cameras for you to look at.  So, if you want to live off this land, you can!  Room for a garden, hunt the land, raise food, you have it all!  Trees have been taken out to allow for the solar to work correctly.  The sellers built this home.  The sellers hate to leave but have just decided to move closer to another area, so they hope someone else will see the love and time they put into making this an off-grid home. If you decided that off grid living is not for you, there is water, entergy and internet on the road, actually at the road and would not be hard to get it.  If you want to view this home, please call me and make an appointment.  Call Pamela Welch at 870-897-0700 to set up a time.
