Escape to your own private retreat on 39.28± acres in the highly desirable Waterloo School District. The true highlight of this property is the incredible setting, featuring a fully stocked 15± acre private lake, an additional pond, and approximately 10 tillable acres. There is enough land and road frontage with this property that the buyer could add two more homes to the acreage! Whether you enjoy fishing, kayaking, hunting, hobby farming, or simply relaxing while taking in the views, this property offers the space and privacy to enjoy country living at its finest.
Situated on the property is a 2002 manufactured home on a full walkout basement. The main level offers approximately 1,620 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, while the finished walkout basement provides additional living space perfect for a family room, recreation area, home office, or guests.
Outdoor amenities continue with multiple buildings ready for work and play. A 30' x 40' outbuilding provides ample room for equipment, boats, ATVs, or workshop space. There's also a 20' x 30' detached building featuring electricity, a concrete floor, and a wood-burning stove, making it an excellent workshop, hobby space, or gathering place. A lean-to on the back of the building provides additional covered storage.
The backyard is designed for entertaining and enjoying the outdoors with an above-ground swimming pool shell, while several portable storage buildings provide even more flexibility for equipment, lawn tools, or recreational gear.
Despite the peaceful, private setting, you're conveniently located just 43 minutes to Belleville, 57 minutes to Scott Air Force Base, and 55 minutes to downtown St. Louis.
