There’s lots to love about this little house on the prairie with the big yard: the history, the location, and the exciting options fueled by your dreams!
First homesteaded in 1871, two years before Horace was established, this land has passed from generation to generation. The house was built about 1960 by the grandson of the original homesteaders. Currently with one-level living, this cute but solid house sits serenely on more than half an acre with beautiful trees.
Numerous recent improvements include new windows, doors, a Kenetico water system, paint inside and out, and many other changes since it was originally built. Sitting on the south end of the lot, it showcases a tree-lined northward country view of the big front yard for you to see your dreams come true.
The wonderful opportunities this property offers are numerous and as expansive as your needs and desires.
As it currently sits, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom house is move-in ready, with appliances. This is quiet, country living conveniently close to Horace, yet far enough away to not see or hear constant reminders of it.
If your dream is for a few more beds and a bath, the open basement could allow two additional bedrooms by adding egress windows. The area next to the laundry could be converted into a second bathroom. You can live in the current home and enjoy a large yard for the kids and dogs to play!
If the dream is to build a new home on the spacious front yard, you could live in the current house to watch your new build. When it’s done, update this house as an in-law suite or rental home.
If your big dream is to start fresh with an attractive country lot close to town, you can use the entire lot for your new build.
Wonderful, attainable options to consider for your present or future needs and desires. Come out to see this little house on the prairie and begin writing your very own history!
