Sitting on 8 beautiful acres in one of Carthage's most desirable areas, this property offers space, privacy, and convenience. You're minutes from Main Street, Carthage, Cordell Hull Lake, and I-40 access, but without the crowded feel of a subdivision. The land is bordered by a tree-lined perimeter, giving the home a quiet, tucked-away feel. A 400 ft concrete circular driveway leads to the home and continues around to the back, creating no-step access to the basement level and easy parking. The property also includes a 40'x30' heated and cooled red-iron steel shop with drive-through garage doors, an office, and a half bath - great for hobbies, storage, or work. A three-stall barn with loft and lean-to adds even more options for animals, equipment, or additional storage. Inside the home, the main level features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary suite includes a tile shower and direct access to the back deck. The living room centers around a stone fireplace, and the dining room features unique windows that bring in beautiful natural light. The kitchen offers tons of cabinetry, a built-in desk area, and another access point to the back deck. The full, partially finished walk-out basement adds a huge amount of usable space. It includes a fourth bedroom, full bath, living room, kitchen, and office - perfect for multi-generational living or potential rental income. The unfinished portion of the basement is large and ideal for storage or a workshop area. Throughout the home you'll find multiple walk-in closets and extra storage areas. Outside, the front of the home features a covered carport/patio with a beautiful garden space. The concrete drive wraps to the back, creating a level entrance to the basement and a nice back patio area. This property offers privacy, acreage, a shop, barn, and huge home with two distinct living areas in a prime location in Carthage.
