Property Description

To be sold at auction on premises: Thursday, April 23, 2026 at 6:00 PM Tucked away in the quiet countryside of Howard County, this 13.81-acre rural property offers the kind of setting that's getting harder to find — space, privacy, and the opportunity to make it your own. The home, originally built in 1910, features 1,672 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. While the home is in need of updates and a new roof, it offers a solid foundation and a functional layout — making it a great candidate for renovation, investment, or a long-term homestead project. In addition to the home, the property is improved with several outbuildings. A 45' x 60' machine shed (built in 1977) provides ample space for small equipment, storage, or workshop use. A 40' x 28' detached garage (built in 1996) adds further utility and convenience. The acreage itself offers a nice mix of open space and wooded areas, providing excellent potential for recreational use, wildlife activity, and hunting opportunities right out your back door. With nearly 14 acres to work with, this property presents a range of possibilities — whether you're looking for a rural residence, hobby farm setup, or a project with upside potential. Properties offering acreage, usable buildings, and location like this are always in demand — bring your vision and be prepared to buy!
