Your very own 20 acre wooded retreat with a stream, workshop & cabin on Riverbend Road, just minutes from Forsyth! Tucked away in mature hardwoods that put on a spectacular show every fall, this Monroe County gem is the private sanctuary you've been looking for. It's an exceptionally well-maintained, all-brick home offering easy one-level living, topped with a standing seam metal roof. Inside, the home feels warm and inviting, featuring gorgeous hardwood floors throughout and a beautiful stone fireplace anchoring the living space. The three bedroom, two bathroom split layout is open and comfortable. Head downstairs, and you'll find a full-height, walk-out partial basement that already includes a half bath. It is a perfect blank canvas just waiting for your vision and a little sweat equity to bring it to life.Outside is where this property really shines. For the hobbyist, mechanic, or woodworker, there's a massive 20x40 metal shop on a poured concrete slab, fully wired and ready for your next project. Follow the peaceful stream that runs through the property, and you'll find a rustic cabin sitting right by the water. The cabin will need some work to bring it back to its full glory, but the hard part is done... it already has plumbing and electricity, giving it incredible potential as a guest cottage, home office, or quiet getaway. If you want privacy, land, natural beauty, and the chance to add some real value just a short drive from town, you need to see this one.
