Welcome to a truly special property where history, nature & opportunity come together on 5 acres. This charming 1-bd, 1-bath ranch may be modest in size, but it offers something that is hard to find: acreage, privacy & a unique setting. The home features a comfortable living room, cozy bedroom, full bath & an eat-in kitchen w/ all appliances staying. An exterior entrance leads to the unfinished basement, providing excellent storage space & housing the washer & dryer. A spacious 2-car garage offers plenty of room for vehicles, hobbies & equipment. Step onto the front porch & enjoy the peaceful beauty of the property, where deer, wild turkeys & a variety of birds are frequent visitors. The acreage provides room to enjoy nature & the outdoors while still being conveniently located in Western Shawnee. One of the property's most intriguing features is its location adjacent to an established luxury subdivision. This acreage offers a unique position & a rare opportunity to own a piece of land surrounded by beautiful homes. Across the way, an active sand mining operation is expected to eventually become a scenic lake, further adding to the property's evolving surroundings. There is also an active railroad line near the property, a characteristic that should be considered by buyers. Many who live near rail lines find that the sounds become much less noticeable over time. But perhaps the most meaningful part of this property isn't something you can see on a survey. This home was built by the seller's father after he came to America from Mexico. His family made their home here, & the seller was born in this very house, along w/ 7 siblings. Generations of memories were made on this land. This is not a cookie-cutter property & that's exactly what makes it special. The right buyer will appreciate the history, acreage, wildlife and incredible potential of owning a truly unique property. Acreage like this, in this location, with this kind of history, is a rare find.
