Description
12+/-acres of wooded solitude in Jefferson County, offering a premium opportunity! Just 2.5 miles south of downtown DeSoto. Heavily timbered sanctuary teeming with deer and turkey among mature walnut, oak, hickory, and cedar trees. Tailored for a visionary homeowner or strategic investor, this rare property blends the peaceful harmony of rural America with modern convenience and financial upside. Unlike typical acreage, this property is highly versatile and fully optimized for an income-generating strategy or multi-generational living. This well-insulated brick 2-bed, 1-bath ranch home (primed for high-value expansion) features an attached 1-car garage, classic breezeway, and a partial basement. Enjoy the harmonious sounds of nature right from the front porch, as you sip your morning coffee. Step inside to discover timeless, old-world craftsmanship, including an arched doorway and hand-swirled ceiling designs. Completely off-grid, capable, the home features its own well and septic system, privately owned propane tanks, and three distinct heating options: forced air (propane), electric baseboard, and wood-burning stove. The home offers a turnkey-ready, comfortable footprint to live in now while you plan cosmetic updates or a seamless, high-value expansion. The acreage has potential to be a highly versatile, income-generating compound. Two of the three outbuildings are complete with their own electric. A massive infrastructure asset lies alongside the driveway; a 15' x 40' concrete pad complete with water and sewer connections, dedicated parking, and yard. Bring your RV to save on storage fees, or haul in a mobile home to generate immediate rental income to cover your mortgage. The true value of this property lies in its exceptional positioning and recreation. Boasting valuable highway frontage, with an additional fully established culvert and entrance near the southern border, providing a rare, streamlined opportunity to easily subdivide the acreage for immense financial return. Just 3-5 minutes from beautiful Walther's Park - a premier city park with a scenic creek, walking and biking trails, volleyball, outdoor exercise stations, playgrounds, and picnic pavilions. Active families and sports enthusiasts will love having a local soccer feild/athletic complex/splashpad within a quick 5-mile drive. Nearby private lakes are available for boating, fishing, and swimming. Unmatched transit connectivity is on the horizon, as a new local AmTrak station stop has been fully approved by both city and state authorities, guaranteeing a future direct rail commuter link to St. Louis and Chicago.This isn't just a home; whether you're looking to downsize, you're just starting out, or you're looking for your perfect, forever home - this is it! Feel the tension melt away as you leave the blacktop and enter your own private getaway. Whether it's your weekend retreat, multi-generational family rendezvous, or your daily "can't wait to get home" sanctuary, this is an irreplaceable lifestyle asset and a blank canvas for your grandest vision. Fall in love with the peace, profit from the potential, and secure a legacy property today!
