Listing #5247274
13.57 acres just down E River Rd from Columbia Hills Country Club, on a street where some of Columbia Station's finest new homes are going up. This is a property that rewards vision: land, location, and options you don't find often. The home is a 3 bedroom, 2 full bath brick ranch with the single-story layout buyers keep asking for. It has a vaulted, beamed great room with a brick fireplace, a wall of windows overlooking the property, and everything on one level. The owner has lived here with multiple dogs and cats for several years, so buyers planning to live in the home should consider any sensitivity to pet allergies before moving forward. A deep clean and a top-to-bottom refresh will give it a clean slate, and then you can put your own stamp on a floor plan that already works. Out back, a large horse barn sits on open pasture with the hard part done: the bones are in place, and electric and water are already run. Fresh paint and some cosmetic attention would go a long way toward bringing back its curb appeal. It's ready to support an equestrian operation, boarding, training, or another land-based business (buyer to verify permitted uses with Columbia Township). Want to build? The barn and the rear acreage, which make up the majority of the property, already have their own private drive. A respected custom builder we consulted sees a secluded rear homesite for a new home, with utilities already reaching the barn area. Build your dream home in back and keep the ranch up front as a rental, guest house, or in-law suite. Lot split and uses subject to township and county approval. Seller rent-back available. Land and barn may be previewed by appointment. Private tours of the home can be arranged for buyers with verified proof of funds or lender pre-approval and require advance planning and ample notice. Contact the listing agent for details. Additional photos and video are available upon request.
