Outside, the property transforms into a true hobby farm retreat. Mature peach, nectarine, and pear trees anchor a thriving edible landscape complemented by grape vines, mulberry bushes, blackberries, and Paw Paw trees. Three individual animal pens, two with coop/ enclosure, are ready for chickens, goats, or small livestock. The coop includes a separate area for a small office for record keeping, and food storage for the animals. The fully gated front and back acreage provides security and privacy, while the 3-car detached garage and workshop with lean-to storage offers space for tractors, tools, equipment, or even a home-based business. With private well and septic and a manageable 3.1-acre footprint, this Monroe mini farm offers independence, flexibility, and future upside in one complete package.
