Description
Located just east of Salem, Indiana, south of State Road 160 between South Boston and New Liberty, this 5-acre property offers a functional and well-equipped rural homesite with the infrastructure and layout to support a wide range of residential and lifestyle uses.
With paved county road frontage along S Hickory Grove Road, the property provides reliable year-round access while maintaining a quiet country setting. A circular driveway extends more than 600 feet from the road to the primary homesite, separating traffic and creating a private setting on the property.
Utilities are already in place, including service from East Washington Water, Jackson REMC electric, high-speed internet, and propane access. Underground electric service is installed, supporting both function and aesthetics while reducing overhead obstruction and simplifying future improvements.
The property includes multiple outbuildings that add immediate utility and long-term flexibility. A primary pole barn measures approximately 30 feet by 20 feet and is 14 feet tall. It features electric service, a large agricultural door, and a standard entry door, making it well-suited for equipment storage, workshop space, or general use. A second, older pole barn also has electric service and includes a wood-burning stove, agricultural and standard access doors, and attached lean-to storage for additional covered space.
An existing single-wide mobile home is located on the property. While it will require updates, including new windows and doors, the structure provides a starting point for renovation, temporary living, or removal to make way for a new home. The roof appears to be in serviceable condition, offering a foundation for improvement depending on the buyer’s plans.
Behind the homesite lies approximately 2 acres of open ground that has been allowed to grow naturally. This portion of the property is well-suited for pasture, gardening, orchard development, or other agricultural uses. The layout supports a range of homestead applications, allowing a future owner to tailor the land to their needs.
A small wooded drainage area runs through the property and features a natural spring originating on-site. This element adds both function and character, offering a potential water source while also creating a natural buffer that enhances privacy and visual appeal.
The property is well-positioned for those seeking a rural homesite with existing infrastructure, usable acreage, and room for expansion. With utilities available, functional improvements already in place, and a layout that supports residential, agricultural, and lifestyle uses, this tract offers a practical opportunity to establish or expand a country living setup in proximity to Salem and surrounding communities. Buyers should verify any intended uses with local authorities.
