Over 11 acres conveniently located in the City limits of Marion! A house with this much acreage in town is simply not easy to find and, yet, here it is...located on N. Main St or what locals refer to as "the 5-lane;" the main corridor through the City of Marion. Currently, in use by a local non-profit, this location was previously a Chiropractor's office. The property contains four (4) separate parcels with over 770' of road frontage; one (1) large land parcel, two (2) small land parcels (0.09 of an acre each), and the house is on 0.53 of an acre. The house has two bedrooms and a bonus room (currently used as a bedroom) which has its own outside access onto the porch/deck. Ceiling fixtures such as large medallions and a gorgeous chandelier with high ceilings and large crown molding give the spaces a dramatic yet classic feel. The exposed brick with an electric fireplace in the entry welcome all who come with a cozy atmosphere as do the hardwood floors through-out the main portion of the house. Small yet sufficient, the kitchen also offers access from the outside. The refrigerator and stove convey as do the washer and dryer in the spacious laundry room. While the home offers adequate space there is also room for big dreams of a possible 2nd home atop the larger tract which, with some clearing, could boast of scenic views of the northern mountains. If another homesite is not what your heart desires, then consider a short-term rental with a private trail system running through-out the property to appeal to the growing hiking/biking community of visitors to the County or simply keep it as your backyard playground; future expansion of the Fonta Flora State Trail is proposed to occur along this roadway. A small complex of townhomes or apartments could also be positioned on the higher elevations of the property to provide many with a view to call home. No matter the path the future owner decides to take, the road that leads there already exists, but will require additional work to sustain any traffic outside of personal use. The old roadbed to access the acreage is not located on the subject property, however, there is an existing 12' right-of-way along the road, is in good condition, and currently used by ATV to maintain the property. A small branch/creek running along the roadbed (also on the adjacent property) offers visual interest as well as a small waterfall and rock formations, before ultimately crossing onto the parcel containing the house.
