Property Description
Ready for an adventure? Here's your own little Shire with easy access to I-35. Tucked at the end of a quiet trail, this earth home offers a blend of whimsy, efficiency, and peaceful seclusion. The driveway is lined with silver maples about to burst into bloom, leading you to a home that's truly one-of-a-kind.
This home features 2 bedrooms, a non-conforming third bedroom, and 1 bathroom. The layout includes a large, open living, kitchen, and dining area that gives the space an airy, connected feel. A wood-burning fireplace adds cozy character and warmth. Earth homes are known for their natural insulation and energy efficiency—and yes, you can even mow the roof!
Set on just over 2 acres, the property also includes a detached 1.5-car garage and an additional outbuilding—great for projects, storage, or a workshop. With no through traffic, this is a quiet and private setting that still keeps you close to convenience—just minutes from I-35. It's not just a home, it's a quest for comfort, charm, and something truly different. Schedule your showing today.
