Homestead for rent in Southern Ohio

Looking for a long term renter for my 2br, 1 bath Homestead, ideally 3-5+ year lease. Located 45 mins south of Chillicothe, just outside of Beaver, Ohio

Unique fully off grid Homestead on 18 acres in Southern Ohio. Off-Grid Solar, compost toilet, rain water catchment, propane cooktop, and wood cookstove that heats house in winter. Home is ecologically designed and best suited for 1-2 people.

2 ponds, 1 stocked with fish, 1 seasonal frog pond, 6 acre field and 12 acres of woods to explore. Small young orchard and 15 blueberry bushes. Property has not been sprayed with chemicals in the 12 years that I've owned it

Ford 8n tractor and farming implements available for use.

Very High speed internet available if you want/need to be connected for work.

Tenant would need to mow and weedeat approximately 1 acre, and do general upkeep on off-grid solar, compost, and water systems.

$1200/month. Property can't be insured due to wood cookstove, so large deposit ($7500) and renters insurance would be required at time of lease. Additionally, I will lead a woodstove safety training.

Open to short-term trial periods to make sure it is a good fit for you (weekend, up to a month)

It is a lot of work to live this kind of lifestyle- not for the faint of heart, but very rewarding!

Absolutely beautiful place and great location just South of the Great Lakes winter cloud belt.  Best of luck, someone will be lucky to find this.

Thanks for the kind words, Jeff!

This is my dream home! Not sure that I could make it work with 6 kids in tow...

Glad you appreciate it! And yes, it would be quite the challenge out there with 6 kids!
