Farmhouse on Small Acreage with Barn, Pond, etc.

Looking for a farmhouse on small acreage that has many of the pieces of an ideal picture already in place? Check out this beautiful 4.88+/- acre property in Martinsburg! This home would make a great property to raise a family or retire on. Kids can have wonderful life experiences like raising animals, growing a garden, & fishing right out the back door! Retirees may be equally attracted to the property's attributes. The VA hospital & University of Missouri Healthcare system are an easy drive away, so healthcare services are accessible with relative convenience. Having already established flower beds blooming throughout the growing season is a definite perk for the retiree who is a botanist at heart...& what grandparent wouldn't want the draw of room to play & a barn for a pony to ensure the grandkids want to visit? Of course, the idea of having a lawn chair & fishing pole at hand just steps from the back porch is a dream scenario for many retirees too! Currently, the property contains a farmhouse with many updates (including a new "smart" HVAC system), two bay detached garage/workshop, stocked pond, barn with hay loft, & more. This tract is bordered on the south property line by a gravelled county road one mile from Highway 19, & just fifteen minutes from Mexico, Missouri. A fifty minute drive is all it takes to arrive in Columbia, while one hour in the other direction will put you at the Wentzville exit in the greater St Louis area. The entire property is open & flat. Portions of the property that are not finish-mowed with a lawnmower are composed of taller "field" type grass that appears to have been mowed on more of an annual basis historically. This flat, open, grassy composition makes accessing the entire tract very easy. With the right maintenance regime, the quail you can already hear singing on the neighbor's property will likely start utilizing the tall grass on this tract as a nesting site. A few smaller outbuildings are older & have significant repair needs. Simply removing these structures may be more feasible for some new owners. Both of the water & sewer systems are private, but a county water supply line exists at the road should future owners desire to utilize the public water supply. The well pump was replaced recently.
