This farmhouse style cottage in the Osage bottoms is in the perfect location for someone who enjoys the country living and outdoor recreational opportunities of rural Northwest Arkansas. This home sits on 1.91+/- deeded acres with beautiful mature hardwood timber surrounding. At the base of a north facing ridge, many hours of shade are provided from mid day thru the evening, helping to keep utility costs low. The cottage is approximately 1650 sq ft with 1350 being on the main floor and 300 upstairs. This quiet country home sits less than 30 minutes from Harrison, Huntsville, Green Forest, Berryville, Kings River and War Eagle River. 40 minutes to Eureka Springs and Beaver Lake. Less than 20 minutes to the Buffalo River and less than 1 hour to Springdale. Built on a concrete and block foundation with a post frame design on white oak timbers, this 1950’s build has loads of character on the inside. Along with the exposed timber frame, there are many live edge wood features and slab counter tops. You can have peace of mind knowing many systems in the home have been updated. The drywall, electric, plumbing, insulation, well pressure tank, water heater, gas heaters, wood stove and masoned chimney are all less than 5 years old. The 3rd bedroom is upstairs with the remainder of the home being on the main level. Home has electricity, natural gas (not common in this area) and well water. The combination of 2 wall mount gas heaters and the wood burning stove can absolutely heat this space. 1 window A/C unit in the bedroom keeps the house comfortable in the summer but another unit or mini split being added in the living room would allow it to be crispy cool. Gorgeous Mountain views looking across the fertile Osage bottoms can be seen from the home with picturesque alfalfa and hay fields. The outdoor living spaces on this property are the highlighting features including a 16x22 shop, 6x32 front porch, 8x16 back and side patio, and an 18x30 carport.
