Hidden deep off the road, this exceptional country estate combines a newly built Amish home, productive farmland, premium hunting, and outstanding privacy. Completed in April 2026, the 3,156-square-foot home offers five official bedrooms but is currently configured as seven, plus a 616-square-foot basement for added storage and flexibility. The property features tillable acreage, fenced pasture, and mixed hardwood timber enrolled in Classified Forest, making it ideal for farming, recreation, or livestock. A year-to-year oral farm lease provides income potential while preserving flexibility. Improvements include a 24'x84' barn with 13 horse stalls and 18-foot wraparound lean-tos, a 24'x40' garage/buggy building with an 8-foot overhang, a 24'x36' open-sided pole barn, and a 12'x27' cabin with hardwood floors and a wood stove awaiting exterior siding. (Ice house and grain bin excluded.) Renowned for world-class whitetail hunting with realistic 160"+ bucks and direct walk-in access to the 210-acre John Hay Lake for outstanding bass fishing, this turnkey property also offers water on site, quality infrastructure, and endless versatility as a family homestead, working farm, horse property, or premier recreational retreat. Opportunities like this are rarely available.
