A rare opportunity in the heart of historic Defiance—this fully restored 1915 bungalow blends storybook charm with modern systems and future-use potential. Thoughtfully renovated by a local builder and interior designer, every major component has been updated, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, drywall, windows, and roof—so while the character is historic, the function is truly turnkey. Future-use potential / adjacent parcel opportunity! Positioned along scenic Highway 94 in Missouri Wine Country, this property offers more than a beautiful place to live—it offers possibility. With strong visibility, walkability to local restaurants, bars, live music, and weekend tourism, buyers have imagined everything from a short-term rental retreat to a coffee/breakfast spot with a small general store feel (buyer to verify all intended uses). The interior welcomes guests with restored hardwood floors, custom kitchen cabinetry, quartz countertops, Energy Star appliances, designer lighting, and a sun-filled solarium perfect for morning coffee or evening wine. Outdoor spaces include a charming covered front porch and a brand-new cedar deck overlooking a private, wooded backyard—ideal for entertaining or quiet escapes. An additional highlight: the buyer will have first right of refusal on the neighboring parcel, which includes a structurally sound two-story barn and potential future flexibility—an increasingly rare opportunity in this location. Whether envisioned as a primary residence, weekend escape, or creative lifestyle investment, this property stands apart for buyers who want charm today and options for tomorrow. Properties with this level of renovation, visibility, and upside rarely come available in Defiance. Property website: https://readytolistit.Aryeo.Com/sites/okxajjz/unbranded
