The interior and exterior features provide generous living space, storage and multiple areas designed to take advantage of the property’s natural setting. The home includes five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, an attached garage and both main-level and lower-level living areas. The combination of finished square footage, acreage and multiple functional rooms allows for flexible use while maintaining a comfortable and connected layout.
The long drive takes you straight to the front of the home. The well-maintained landscaping features a water feature of a small pond. The covered front porch is a country home dream and creates an incredible greeting to all.
Upon entering the main floor, the home features hardwood flooring throughout the primary living areas. The open concept kitchen and dining area sit at the center of the home and include wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a brand-new dishwasher, wraparound counter space, an island with seating, and a direct connection to the living room. The living room is surrounded by windows that provide broad views of the pond and the surrounding pasture. Additional natural light is supplied by recessed ceiling lighting. The main floor also includes an office area with French doors and space for desks or storage, as shown in the provided images.
A large primary bedroom suite is located on the main level and includes hardwood flooring, multiple windows, and an attached full bathroom. The main floor also contains another bedroom and a laundry and mudroom area that connects directly to the attached garage, providing a functional entry point for daily use.
A three-season room sits on the main level as well, offering an additional sitting area with windows overlooking the pond. A small exterior deck extends from this room, giving outdoor access for enjoying the views. Hardwood flooring continues throughout the majority of the main level, creating consistency between the rooms and living spaces.
The basement level of the home is fully finished and includes a large secondary living room with a walkout to the covered patio and the fenced backyard that features a fire pit area. The lower level includes three bedrooms and a full bathroom, as well as additional storage rooms. The basement layout is designed for a practical living space with easy access to the outdoor areas, making it suitable for guests, extended family, or recreational use.
The 14-acre property consists of rolling topography typical of Pike County. The acreage includes boundary fencing, open pasture and two ponds, one of which is currently dry. There are also two small outbuildings for more storage. The fenced sections create options for livestock, pets, or land management. The views from the back of the home overlook the pasture and ponds and the walkout basement leads directly to the patio areas and yard.
The property provides convenient access to nearby regional towns. It is approximately 55 miles to Jacksonville, about 38 miles to Quincy, and roughly 19 miles to Hannibal, Missouri. These communities offer additional services, employment, health care, and shopping while still keeping the home in a quiet rural setting characteristic of Pike County.
With a water softener and efficient geothermal heating and cooling for low utility costs, this property is one you can't pass up. This home offers a substantial amount of indoor square footage combined with usable acreage, ponds, fencing, and a layout that can support residential living, hobby farming, or multi-generational use.
