Visit Sat Open House (1-10-26) To Walk Through Rare Properties That Offer Real Flexibility And May Help You Solve Current/Future Living Challenges.
STOP BY AN OPEN HOUSE ON SATURDAY JANUARY 10 from 1-3 PM and MEET THE VEENSTRA TEAM
Two houses (10809 N 12th Street and 10827 N 12th Street), and a vacant land parcel of 26.81 acres bring together options buyers rarely find together:
You will find two neighboring homes on separate parcels which could be purchased together by one buyer or independently to separate buyers.
There is also the opportunity to purchae a parcel of vacant land eithe alone or with one or more of the other parcels.
The flexibility this opportunity offers is what is so unique. You will be able to explore some interesting opportunities for “multigenerational living” or “connected independent living” ….or just a neat opportunity to own a home that meets more standard living needs.
Flexibility for today and future phases
Let us explain further. There are Three Distinct Alamo Township Parcels (Homes/Land) That Can Be Purchased Together or Separately
1️⃣ OPTION ONE - Purchase one of the 3 separate properties
There is the “little house” at 10809 N 12th Street — Simple, Move-In-Ready Living
https://tinyurl.com/10809N12th
This home is ideal for buyers who want:
A fully move-in-ready home
Manageable size
Straightforward ownership
No need to reconfigure or plan around future changes
It works well as:
A primary residence
A downsized home
A low-maintenance option for buyers who want clarity and simplicity
This home stands confidently on its own.
Then there is the “big house” at 10827 N 12th Street — A Flexible Home with Multiple POTENTIAL Futures
https://tinyurl.com/10827N12th
This home offers intentional adaptability.
The walkout lower level with a zero step entry and atached garage allows the space to function in several ways over time, including:
5 .36 acres with raised beds, a fenced garden area and wondreulf nature
A large barn to store all the items you need and want to be a gentleman farmer
A large rec room with an additional bedroom on the walk out level
A dedicated work-from-home or hobby space
A guest suite
The option to add additional living space in an attic that is unfinished
Or a true Independent Living Suite (ILS) with:
No-step entry
Living area
Bedroom and full bath
Kitchenette
Laundry access
Garage connection
This is a home that can grow, shift, or simplify as life changes—without requiring a move.
Finally there is the opportunity to purchase the adjacent 26.81 acre vacant land with a stream, fruit trees, walking paths and lots of nature!
This option appeals to buyers who value:
Want to build a home with long-term privacy
Desire recreational land
Have the dream of future development or legacy planning
OPTION 2: A buyer may desire to purchase both homes for control, income, connected independence or flexibility
Buying both 10809 and 10827 together unlocks possibilities that are extremely rare to find in one location.
Depending on ownership structure and use, buyers could explore:
Owner-occupant living in the big home with income potential in the other little home.
Owner occupant living in the big home with an opportunity for connected Independent living in the smaller home so you could have multigenerational living with true separation
Owner occupand in the big home and a walk out level Independent Living Suite on the walk out level
Owner occupant in the big home and a walk out level Independent Living Suite on the walk out level and a second independent connected option in the little house.
Owner occupant in the big home and a “caregiver” or “support person” living near by.
Owner occupant in the big home with an opportunity for a home based business in all or part of the walk out level and a second home to use for connected independence or a rental or????
Purchasing both homes allows buyers to control proximity without forcing shared living, while also keeping future exit or reconfiguration options open.
We can help you explore financing options for purchasing one of both preoperties.
OPTION 3: Expand your purchase with an adjacent land purchase of 26.81 acres
An adjacent vacant parcel is also available, creating the opportunity to assemble approximately 32.76 acres when combined.
This option appeals to buyers who value:
Long-term privacy
Recreational land
Future development or legacy planning
A buffer that protects the surrounding environment
This land can be purchased separately, but when combined with one or both homes, it transforms the opportunity from a housing solution into a long-range property strategy.
Why Options In Housing Matter More Than Ever
Many buyers today aren’t just buying for now.
They’re trying to answer questions like:
What if our family structure changes?
What if health, work, or finances shift?
How do we avoid needing to move again too soon?
Properties that allow phased decisions—rather than all-or-nothing choices—are increasingly valuable, in part because they are quite rare.
