What if your next home could be a hole-in-one? Welcome to Lot 26 in LMVCC Estates - a beautiful 1-acre corner walkout lot in a peaceful, well-maintained golf course community between Logan & Missouri Valley just off Hwy 30. That's 43,560 square feet to create something pretty incredible - and you're not builder-attached, so bring your own builder & design the home you actually want. Want a shop? The covenants allow up to a 30x40. Want a garden? You can have that, too. And golfers - the 9-hole course is right here with direct golf cart access just across the street. You get the golf-course lifestyle without sitting directly on the fairway, which may also help keep those stray golf balls away from your new home. There's a community well, an HOA, & you're ~30 min from Omaha or Council Bluffs. Build the house. Build the shop. Plant the garden. Park the golf cart. Lot 26 might just be your hole-in-one.
