Webster County Acreage, Red Cloud, Nebraska

A rare opportunity in Webster County! This scenic Webster County acreage features approximately 5 acres with a 3,800 sq ft brick home, two large outbuildings and a detached garage. The alfalfa field on the east could easily be converted to pasture for a few horses. This well-maintained acreage enjoys easy access off Highway 136, located just 4 miles east of Red Cloud, and a 40-mile easy drive north to Hastings. The house is a solid brick ranch with a fully finished basement. It has been recently updated with new windows, a new roof, and has thermal heat and cooling. The screened in back patio is a lovely, quiet spot for morning coffee and is shaded by trees for cool, comfortable enjoyment even late in the day during summer. The home features a laundry room and attached restroom right off the main floor kitchen. There are three bedrooms and two baths on the main floor. The basement has an enormous carpeted rec room that makes a great wide-open area for rambunctious kids and tons of toys. The basement has one bedroom and two non-conforming bedrooms, a full bath, and an area wired for and perfect for a kitchen. The basement enjoys an entrance at the top of the stairs, and so could be considered a separate living quarters from the upstairs. This home is well built with all the expensive ongoing maintenance taken care of. Underground sprinklers keep the established landscape and manicured lawn green and lush. This place is ready for your paint colors and personal touches to make it uniquely your own! The Morton buildings are older, but extremely well maintained. The steel siding shows no evidence of rust or denting. The 45 x 75 shop has a concrete floor, two machinery doors, electricity, heat, and even a small restroom. Work benches, shelving, and storage are already built for all your tools and equipment. The second Morton building is 30 x 63 and has a concrete floor and one machinery door. These buildings would allow pursuits of any hobby, be great to rent, or serve as a base for a commercial business. They have been used as the base of operations for the current owners well drilling business, and would make an excellent machinery work or repair shop. The lower back yard has a stairwell built to climb the short hill to the upper yard. There was once a dilapidated house in that space that the current owners bought, tore down, and planted to lawn grass. It is now a large, flat expanse for flag football or other play, with only a tidy detached garage on the space to use for extra storage. Acquiring this land insured that no one will ever build behind this home, so it will always have its peace and privacy. This is country living at its best, close enough to a community to make it easy to get groceries, with a larger community within striking distance for more specific needs, and a short drive to Harlan County Reservoir for fishing and boating. Red Cloud is a lovely community with excellent schools. This a fantastic family home and property with much to offer on a wide range of interests!
