A truly special setting that is increasingly difficult to find! Situated on approximately 2.5 wooded acres, this one-owner home backs directly up to the Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge, offering incredible privacy and personal access to thousands of acres of protected natural beauty right from your own backyard. Enjoy the peaceful surroundings, abundant wildlife and changing seasons from a property that has been lovingly owned by the same family since it was built in 1974. The rambler-style home offers three bedrooms on the main level, spacious living areas and wonderful potential for the next owner to update and personalize it to their own style. Bring your ideas and create the home you've been envisioning while enjoying a location and setting that simply cannot be recreated. And then there is the pole barn! At an impressive 28' x 48', there is plenty of room for cars, recreational toys, equipment, hobbies and storage. The 12' overhead door provides easy access for larger vehicles and equipment. Previously used for woodworking, the pole barn also features a separate insulated back room—perfect for a workshop or hobby space. Many of the important big-ticket improvements have already been taken care of, including a new furnace and central air in 2025, water heater and Kinetico water system in 2025, roof in 2023 and septic system in 2023. If you've been looking for acreage, privacy, room for your hobbies and a property surrounded by nature, this is one you won't want to miss. The house can be updated to make it your own—but a setting like this is something you simply can't create. Come see the possibilities!
