**Old World Tuscany Charm Meets Minnesota Living**
Just outside of Willmar, this 12-acre estate offers a home unlike any other—full of character, craftsmanship, and charm. Designed and remodeled by its owner, a master tiler, the residence showcases artistry and detail at every turn.
Inside, you’ll be welcomed by the warmth of a stone fireplace, the richness of wood-clad ceilings, and the elegance of arched tile entrances. Every room carries a touch of old-world Tuscany, creating a style and atmosphere you won’t find anywhere else. A convenient tuck-under garage blends seamlessly with the home’s unique design, and the furnace was replaced just 6 months ago for peace of mind.
The land is just as impressive. With 10 acres of tillable soil boasting a strong 92.3 CPI rating, you’ll enjoy both wide-open views and income potential. Apple, plum, spruce, and willow trees add beauty, privacy, and charm to the setting, making this property truly special.
This is more than a home—it’s an experience. Don’t miss the drone and virtual tours, and schedule your showing today to see this rare gem in person!
