Looking for space to spread out, work on projects, or start your own little homestead? This place gives you over 2 acres of peace and privacy right in the middle of Fairview Heights. The home sits up on a quiet hill and has been nicely updated, so you can move right in and start enjoying the land. One of the best parts of this property is the detached 2-car garage with brand-new doors and its own electric service. It’s perfect if you’re into cars, woodworking, crafting, welding, or just need a real workshop where you can make some noise and get things done. Inside, the house has restored hardwood floors, fresh paint, an updated kitchen with modern appliances, main-floor laundry, a roomy living area, large bedrooms, and a clean, refreshed bathroom. There’s also a full unfinished basement—great for storage, tools, canning supplies, or future expansion. Outside is where this place really shines. You’ve got a newly paved asphalt driveway, a big concrete patio, a pergola, a new pond, and a poultry pen ready for chickens or ducks. Whether you want to garden, raise a few animals, or just enjoy the quiet, you’ve got the space to do it. Major updates include a new roof (2022) and new septic system (2023), so the big stuff is already taken care of. Even with all this land and privacy, you’re still just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, schools, public transit, Scott Air Force Base, and an easy drive into downtown St. Louis!
