Peaceful country retreat on 2.76 acres with no close neighbors, single-level living, and easy access to blacktop - this is the rural escape many buyers search for. Enjoy quiet surroundings with the nearest neighbor about a half mile away and convenient access off Nobles County Highway 1, making it feel private yet still connected. Custom built in 2007, this slab-on-grade patio home offers true one-level living with an open-concept kitchen, dining, and sun-filled living room, plus a flexible second bedroom that opens to the living area and can function as a guest room, den, or reading nook. All hard-surface flooring (tile and stained concrete) and thermal pane low-E windows with a subtle green tint create a low-maintenance, energy-conscious interior ideal for year-round comfort. There is a spacious office area perfect for a home-based business, remote work, or hobby space while still feeling residential and welcoming. A finished, heated and cooled garage, broad front patio, and easy indoor-outdoor flow give the home a relaxed “country retreat” feel for everyday living and weekend entertaining. Additional highlights include a custom tiled bath, a large wet bar with overflow storage near the dining area, and an RV parking station-features often sought by rural, snowbird, or retiring buyers. For out-of-area buyers looking for “rural yet convenient,” the location is a standout: approximately a 20-minute drive to Worthington for medical care, groceries, and shopping, roughly an hour to Sioux Falls, about an hour to an hour and a half to the Okoboji Lakes area in Iowa, and approximately 2.5 to 3 hours to the southern Minneapolis-St. Paul metro-offering privacy, open views, and big skies while staying within easy reach of larger city amenities and airports.
