This is a beautiful small-acreage property, with potential for many uses. Possibilities abound, including agricultural uses or just "room to roam". The original 1890 farm house is still part of the current structure, which includes at least two additions in the 11990s. A large "country kitchen" and dining room are the center point of the home. A huge living room has been added, with large windows on 3 sides. The original living room on the main floor has recently been used as a bedroom, and has an oversize closet area, as well. This is a classic country home, with many modern amenities. City gas, city water, central heating and air conditioning. New carpet upstairs May of 2026.
The big yards, woods and pond make for a unique combination. Over 300' of privacy fencing and easy access to the Luce Line Trail make the property special. Enjoy large mature trees around the house, and full woods around the 400 feet of pond frontage. The property is annexed into the city of Watertown. The beautiful 30x28 Morton steel building is less than 9 years old. It is fully insulated, heated, has its own separate 100 amp electrical service and a 16x14' overhead door. Bring your large toys, RVs, vehicles or shop ideas.
Walking distance to the new elementary school, and an easy walk into downtown Watertown. In Watertown, find 5 eating/drinking establishments, a supermarket and a true "main street" along the waters of the Crow River. The Luce Line Trail is directly north of the property, as well.
So much to enjoy on this private 2.7 acre property.
Zoning is Agricultural A-1 Open Space, which allows one horse or cow, up to 5 sheep or goats, 25 poultry, 10 dogs, and 50 small animals such as rabbits.
