3/B, 2B BRICK HOME. Built in 2010, the 2,460-square-foot all electric brick home offers three bedrooms, two baths, and just the right mix of comfort and simplicity. The open-concept, split bedroom layout provides added privacy for the homeowners with the primary suite located separately from the other two bedrooms. In the primary bath, a custom stained-glass window adds a little extra charm to the garden tub area. There is also a walk-in shower, double vanity/sink area, and a large walk-in closet. The primary bedroom is huge, large enough to accommodate both a sleeping area and relaxation area.

The design of this home is perfect for family dinners after a long day or catching up with friends on the porch. And those porches? Both front and back are covered - perfect for a cup of coffee at sunrise or listening to the crickets after dark. Mature water oaks and red oaks provide cooling shade around the house. Raised beds are in place near the house, ready to grow vegetables, herbs, or flowers.

THE PROPERTY. The land itself is what makes this place so special. It's set up and working - with lush Bahia grass pastures, fenced and cross-fenced, ready for your cattle or horses. If you're looking to jump right in, there's even an opportunity to purchase the cattle and equipment to keep things moving from day one. Currently, the farm is running about 36 head of cattle, including two bulls. The owners follow all veterinarian recommended treatments and have a 95% success rate on calving.

You'll also find everything you need to keep the operation running smoothly - a large, 30'x30' metal shop with roll-up doors, a tractor barn, and a hay barn big enough to store your cuttings for the season.

But this isn't just a working farm - it's a place to live. Nearly 90 acres of open ground give you space for horseback riding, ATV adventures, or just room to breathe. There's a 3.5-acre pond right by the house - stocked with bass, bream, and catfish - and across the road, more acreage with hardwoods, a 2-acre duck pond, and great hunting for whitetail deer, turkey, doves, and seasonal waterfowl.
