About this home

Own a piece of iconic Route 66 history with this one-of-a-kind estate nestled on 44+/- picturesque acres. Originally built around 1945, this remarkable property has been thoughtfully remodeled and expanded over the years. Once home to a general store and automotive garage, it has been transformed into a stunning residence that perfectly blends historic charm with modern comfort. The main home welcomes you with a wraparound covered front porch, elegant French door entry, soaring 9-foot ceilings, beautiful wood floors, and an open-concept floor plan. Enjoy cozy evenings by the wood-burning fireplace or relax in the sunroom overlooking the scenic landscape. (Sellers have not used the fireplace, are not sure if it's working and selling it as-is) The spacious upstairs primary suite features two walk-in closets, charming dormer windows, a private bath with an antique clawfoot tub, and an adjoining library complete with a vaulted ceiling, stained glass window, and abundant natural light. Step outside to the partially covered back deck with pergula and take in peaceful views of the meadow with a gazebo, two spring-fed streams, and wooded surroundings. The property also includes exceptional outbuildings. A finished two-car detached garage/workshop offers flexible space on both levels, with the main floor ideal for a workshop, studio, or spa, while the fully equipped loft apartment above—with a full bath on each level—provides excellent guest accommodations or rental income potential. A newly constructed detached three-bay garage adds parking for 2 more cars and a 3rd spot for utility vehicles or storage, and the concrete RV pad with full hookups makes hosting or traveling effortless. The park-like acreage features two spring-fed streams, gazebo, storage shed, and a lean-to, creating the perfect setting for recreation, hunting, or simply enjoying nature. Best of all, the property borders the National Forest with direct access to a large access area, offering endless opportunities for outdoor adventure. Rarely does a property with this much character, history, acreage, and versatility become available. Don't miss your chance to own this extraordinary Route 66 retreat. Square footage and measurements are approximate REF DSC-8001. There is a wood furnace that was used for back-up heat, but it is no longer working and being sold as-is. See Seller's Disclosure - current main heat is electic with propane backup, plus mini-splits for additional heat. The workshop also has baseboard heat. This property is NOT located in a flood zone.
