About 8256 S Ketcham Rd

Welcome to your own 5-acre getaway—private, peaceful, and endless possibilities. Situated on South Ketcham Road, this remarkable property is comprised of two 2.5-acre parcels, each with its own address—presenting the unique option to build a second residence. (Buyers are encouraged to consult with the county regarding restrictions and permitting). At the heart of the property is a beautifully updated 1,524 square foot home. As you step inside, there’s a cozy front seating area that leads into a spacious great room for living and dining. The kitchen is generous and bright, updated with new countertops and black stainless steel appliances. Nearly every corner of the home has seen improvements, including a new roof and gutters, new windows, updated bathrooms, modern paint, trim, doors, lighting, custom closet shelving, and a new furnace. Ask your agent for the full list of upgrades. Outside, the property shines just as much. A 38-foot long covered front porch offers a perfect spot to take in the peaceful views, while the new 22' X 56' back patio is built for entertaining or quiet evenings. The 24' X 30' detached garage is oversized and includes a new automatic door opener, a gas heater, and is already plumbed for a bathroom—just needs finishing. You’ll also find a 40' X 50' barn with four livestock stalls and its own 400-amp electrical service. It’s connected to the second 2.5-acre parcel, which is fully fenced and ready for livestock or future plans. This property offers space, privacy, and room to grow—all just waiting for you.
