    Overview

    Beautiful country farm house with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 4 floors – basement, main floor, 2nd floor, and full walk-up attic floor! Approximately, 37+/- acres to roam with fields/pasture, trees, and 1300 ft on the river! Homesteaders, preppers, and large families take a look! A 100+ year old log Finnish barn with 2 run-in shelters for horses or livestock gives the homestead a nostalgic feel. A cute garden shed with peonies and comfrey sits on the original old homesite. Just down the newly paved (2025) road you will find access to the ATV/UTV/Equestrian trail that will take you as far as you want to go! A number of updates since 2015 is pages long including a brand-new gravity fed septic and drain field (December 2020). Perennial beds with flowers (lilac, daffodil, sedum, columbine, lily, iris, chives, etc) and fenced garden areas with organic produce allow for self-sufficiency. Three apple trees produce for your apple sauce and pie making needs, and wild raspberries (domestic too) black berries, strawberries, and blue berries are found throughout the property. A little wood shed near the outdoor fire pit is surrounded by tansy and close to the hill that overlooks the river and displays amazing views at sunset. Three decks and 2 enclosed porches provide for your outdoor needs, and a wood-heated sauna in the basement with changing room warms you up when the snow flies. There is room for an additional bathroom on the 2nd floor, and the 3rd story open attic would make a great 5th bedroom suite, bonus room, office, homeschooling classroom, craft room or provide for copious amounts of storage. There’s too much to list! This is for sale by owner with pre-approval documents or proof of funds required for showings. Currently scheduling private showings starting June 15 .
    What the owner loves about this home
    Privacy. Natural light in every room. No neighbors in site of the house. Easy commute. Fiber internet coming down the newly paved road this summer. Room for homesteading. Sunrises with fog from behind the log barn. Wildlife galore by the peaceful river - beaver, otter, ducks, geese, rabbits, deer, eagles, moose, sandhill cranes and the list goes on.
