Property Description

The "Mini-Farm" Dream with 5-Acre Expansion Opportunity! Welcome to 2148 Marshyhope Rd—a masterfully maintained 1960s homestead where "country living" isn't just a phrase, it’s a reality. Perfectly scaled for the modern hobby farmer, this .58-acre gem offers the ultimate setup for self-sufficiency without the stress of excessive land maintenance. Start your farm on day one. This property is fully equipped with a two-stall horse barn, a dedicated goat enclosure, and a custom-built patio area. The outdoor space is anchored by vibrant perennial flower beds, creating a stunning, low-maintenance landscape for outdoor entertaining and quiet country mornings. Inside, the home radiates warmth and stability. The heart of the home is the large country kitchen, designed for big meals and easy flow. In the living room, a classic wood-burning stove provides cozy, efficient heat. You can rest easy knowing all the "big-ticket" items are taken care of, including a brand-new septic system (installation in progress), newer, high-efficiency HVAC, and new LVP flooring just installed this year. The oversized garage includes an unfinished loft space above - a blank canvas perfect for a future bedroom or guest quarters. THE BIG OPPORTUNITY: Looking for more room to roam? An additional 5.27-acre parcel that butts up to the property, as well as an adjoining .48-acre lot, are also available for purchase! Combined with the homestead, this creates a 6.3+ acre estate, giving you 3.8 acres of prime dry land for pasture and 2.5 acres of beautiful natural wetlands for ultimate privacy. Please refer to the separate Bright MLS listings for the adjoining parcels (or contact the listing agent directly for details) to purchase the home, the land, or the entire package, and start your country story today! The sellers are electing to keep the offer period open until Monday, June 22 at 12:00 PM. Given that there are three separate properties involved, they would like adequate time to evaluate all offers and determine the best path forward for each of them. Please contact the listing agent with any questions.
