**NEW ROOF INSTALLED NOV. 2024!** An idyllic blend of space, functionality, and rural charm makes this 21-acre modern homestead feel like one of those unicorn properties rarely made available publicly. Set in the highly-coveted area between Booneville and Greenwood, this location offers the best of both worlds to a growing number of people yearning for self-sufficiency without sacrificing access to modern conveniences. If the amenities you need aren't available in nearby Booneville, an abundance of shopping, dining, and healthcare choices are approximately 30 minutes away in the regional hub of Fort Smith. Back at the farm, a paved, private entry with an automated gate adds both elegance and peace of mind to deter unauthorized access (gate installed 2019, driveway paved 2021). Near the home, a 30x40' insulated shop built in 2021 with electrical service, 9.5' lean-to sides, and a 15' peak-height ceiling is an excellent spot to hone your hobbies. The property also offers a 40x50' barn built in 2019 for hay storage or sheltering livestock as well as a 12x24' storage building with electrical service. New fencing was installed around the home and the front pasture in 2019. Plus, Polecat Branch also crosses the property providing a seasonal water source for livestock! In the home, upgrades include an LG kitchen appliance package with refrigerator, a range less than one year old, a new dishwasher in December 2023, and new HVAC in 2020. The main level of the home includes the primary suite as well as two guest bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath, an additional half-bath near the kitchen, and a flex space with a separate entry/exit that could serve as an office, playroom, or optional sixth bedroom. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a bathroom also offer flex space for those needing to keep all bedrooms on the first floor. As always, pictures and a small paragraph don't do it justice. 859 Vernon Hill is an opportunity to make your rural sanctuary a reality!
