Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a piece of Johnson County history! Nestled on a secluded acre, this charming farmhouse was once the original homestead of the surrounding family farm and is now available for only the second time in generations. From the covered front porch, take in panoramic views of a picturesque ranch featuring rolling terrain, scattered with oak trees and black Angus cattle, plus classic red barn with windmill. Although conveniently located just a short drive from town, the setting feels worlds away, offering the privacy and tranquility so many buyers are searching for. Inside, the home blends timeless farmhouse character with thoughtful modern updates. The kitchen has been completely reimagined from the studs out with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, updated appliances, new flooring, and a fresh country-chic design. Additional improvements include a new HVAC system installed, electrical upgrades, all new plumbing, refinished hardwood floors, luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh interior paint, updated lighting, and a newly configured third bedroom, roof only 3-4 years old, making the home truly move-in ready. Outside, you'll find everything needed to enjoy country living. A 25' x 30' metal shop with concrete floors and electricity offers excellent space for parking, hobbies, projects, equipment, or storage. Mature trees provide shade throughout the property, while the chicken coop, fenced yard, and wide-open outdoor space offer endless possibilities for gardening, animals, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Located in a USDA-eligible area, qualifying buyers may have access to zero-down financing. Properties offering this combination of character, privacy, modern updates, and unforgettable views rarely become available. Come experience the lifestyle that makes this property truly one of a kind.
