Have you ever dreamed of living in a small, quiet town, sitting on your front porch and sipping lemonade while watching classic cars drive by on historic Route 66? If so, this is your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Mayberry. This charming cottage sits directly in the heart of Halltown, MO, known during prohibition as ''Little Chicago'' for its ties to Bonnie and Clyde and Al Capone. Surrounded by open fields and cattle farms, Halltown is just 20 minutes away from Springfield, one of the fastest growing metro areas in the state, home to a major university, innumerable restaurants, and the Springfield Cardinals Minor League Baseball team. Direct access to I-44 highway is only minutes away, or you can hop on your bike and follow the Mother Road down old 66 all the way to Chicago or L.A. Oozing character, this habitable little gem is being sold as is and can be lived in while updating or making it into your dream home. With a little sweat equity, it would be ideal for a couple starting out, a college student, or an empty nester who is downsizing and wants the peace and safety that comes with living in a small community. If you are looking for a place to raise a garden, keep pets, or even have a chicken coop or bee hive in the back yard, this is it! This property also provides unlimited investment potential. AirBNB on Route 66, anyone? The large metal shop which is 42'x25', could easily be turned into a commercial garage, antique store, or roadside venue. With its incredible location and proximity to Springfield and I-44, you can imagine what the lot alone might be worth in 10 years. So...if you are looking for a starter home, investment opportunity, or just super-cool piece of history, contact our office, take a spin, and come get your kicks on Route 66!
