2 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 26064603 MLS ⋅ ACTIVE Status
This 10 +/- acre property is located just north of Bloomsdale in Ste. Genevieve County, Missouri, about 3 miles from town. The property is accessed off of paved Carron Road, with a gravel easement road leading in to the house. A 1,400 +/- square foot basement earth home is located on the property. The home offers two bedrooms, one full bathroom, and one half bathroom. Utilities are already in place at the house. This style of home uses the surrounding earth for added insulation, which can be a benefit for energy efficiency and temperature stability throughout the year. With all of the main living space built into a single structure, the home offers a straightforward layout for a buyer looking for a primary residence, a weekend getaway, or a quiet retreat on acreage. A shop with two garage doors is also located on the property, with partial concrete flooring and the remainder in gravel. The shop provides space to park equipment or vehicles and offers additional storage. A small shed on the property adds further storage space. Together, the shop and shed give a new owner a head start on equipment and tool storage without having to build new structures right away. Most of the 10 acres is wooded, with the open ground limited to the area around the house and driveway. The timber cover gives the property a secluded feel and privacy. There is room for a second home to be built, though the ground is currently wooded and would need to be cleared first, as no homesite has already been opened up. The wooded nature of the land also provides the option to clear additional ground over time, whether for a second home, expanded yard space, or other uses. Its location just a few miles from Bloomsdale keeps it convenient while still offering a quiet, wooded setting. The mix of established improvements and undeveloped acreage gives a new owner both a place to start and room to grow into the property over time.
