Description
This 26± acre hobby farm in Massac County, Illinois, offers a functional mix of residential living and agricultural utility. The property includes a home, multiple outbuildings, and approximately 23 acres of fenced pasture that is currently supporting cattle. Located in a quiet rural area, it is well-suited for a manageable farm operation or country homestead. The residence is a 1,173-square-foot home with two bedrooms and one bathroom. The interior includes a practical kitchen and dining area, a living room, a pantry room, and an unfinished basement that can be used for storage. A covered front porch provides a comfortable space to sit and enjoy the rural surroundings. Several supporting structures are located on the property. A detached two-car garage offers vehicle storage, while a 30-foot by 50-foot shop building provides workspace and equipment storage. Additional sheds are available for tools, supplies, or livestock-related needs. The gravel driveway and parking area allow easy access to the home and outbuildings, while mature trees around the yard provide shade and character. The land is primarily in pasture, with approximately 23 acres fenced and currently used for grazing livestock. The pasture layout supports rotational grazing and other livestock management practices. The terrain is gently rolling with some small valleys and large trees offering livestock a place to retreat from the weather. The balance of the acreage includes the homesite, outbuildings, and yard. The property also offers excellent accessibility, with approximately 3,500 feet of total road frontage across multiple sides. This layout provides several potential entry points and enhances long-term flexibility for use and management. Utilities are available along the road frontage, though buyers should confirm service availability directly with providers. The farm is conveniently located near area towns and services. Metropolis, the Massac County seat, is approximately 12 miles south and provides groceries, healthcare, and river access. Paducah, Kentucky, is about 20 miles away and offers expanded shopping and services. Marion is located approximately 35 miles north, while Carbondale lies about 50 miles northwest and is home to Southern Illinois University. The property is also within driving distance of the Shawnee National Forest, Dutchman Lake, and other Southern Illinois recreational destinations. This Massac County farm provides a balance of rural living, agricultural capability, and manageable acreage size. With a functional home, multiple outbuildings, and fenced pasture in place, it is ready to support livestock, hobby farming, or other small-scale agricultural operations.
