About this home
Discover a truly unique property on the edge of Philo-5 acres of privacy and charm featuring mature trees, a fully stocked pond, and multiple living options, all thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained. The main home, rebuilt in 2000-2001, offers a flexible layout with 2-3 bedrooms, multiple living areas, and hard-surface flooring throughout. The kitchen was beautifully refreshed in 2019 with Quartz countertops and hickory cabinets, blending modern style with everyday functionality. An attached 2-car garage, plus an additional 1-car garage and shop, provide generous space for vehicles, storage, and hobbies. Adding exceptional value to the property is the separate guest house, remodeled in 2022. This charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath home features central air, hard-surface flooring, and its own 2-car garage, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. Both homes enjoy peace of mind with roofs (Main house replaced in 2015, guest house in 2022), and the entire property runs on a single public water, public gas, and electric meter for convenience. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the grounds are truly a highlight. Spend your mornings by the private pond, stocked with bass and catfish, or take advantage of the 30 x 40 outbuilding w/ electric and full concrete (2005), perfect for equipment, workshop space, or recreation. Paid-off, ground-mounted solar system provides major utility savings (recent bills for the whole property: $310, $179, $112, and $238). This is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds: a secluded country retreat with mature landscaping, abundant space, and energy efficiency-yet only minutes from town. Whether you're seeking a primary residence with guest accommodations, a multi-generational setup, or a private lifestyle retreat, 804 S. Lincoln is ready to welcome you home.
