Escape to your own private, heavily wooded 12.5-acre retreat in Sibley County! This spacious two-story home offers 2,043 sq ft of comfortable living with room to grow. A covered front porch welcomes you inside to a versatile main level featuring a front sitting/reading room, private office, half bath, and mudroom-style laundry off the garage entry. The open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops flows into the dining and living room areas, with a large deck off the dining room perfect for enjoying the wooded views and abundant wildlife.
Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms, including an owner's suite with vaulted ceilings and a private ¾ bath, plus a full bath for the additional bedrooms. The unfinished walkout lower level offers a blank canvas with room to add a bedroom, bathroom, and family room (5-bedroom septic already in place).
Outside, a large three-car attached garage (sheetrock-wrapped) provides ample storage, while a 40x45 pole shed with 12' ceilings and 100-amp electrical service offers space for equipment, hobbies, or a workshop. A charming hand-built treehouse adds a magical touch for kids or guests. Two gravel driveways provide access from the county road. Well and septic systems in place.
A rare opportunity for privacy, space, and acreage living, just minutes from Belle Plaine!
