Nestled within a serene 53 acre oasis, this property features a blend of hardwoods, pastures, and a natural waterway called Hardwood Creek flowing through it. You’ll feel as though you've escaped to the northern woods of Minnesota, yet you're only 20 minutes from the Twin Cities metro area.
This custom-built home showcases exceptional craftsmanship at every turn, with high-end finishes and numerous recent renovations, including new Andersen windows, a new roof, maintenance-free decking, and a new well installed in 2019. The interior boasts cherry wood finishes, solid surface countertops, upscale appliances, and spacious open areas perfect for entertaining. The massive lower-level wet bar complements an inviting recreation room and ample living areas.
On either side of the home, you'll find two expansive decks one with a covered area and another off a large three-season porch that overlooks the lush grounds, perfect for taking it all in and enjoying the abundant wildlife.
For equestrian enthusiasts, there is ample pasture and 28 acres of hardwoods ideal for riding trails or nature paths not to mention the creek flowing through the northern end of the parcel. Hobbyists and sports enthusiasts will appreciate the massive 40x132' outbuilding, perfect for storing toys or providing space for creative projects. Notably, the property features a historical chicken coop or pigeon coop, adding charm and character.
Opportunities like this rarely come to market, and this unique property tells a story that sets it apart from the rest. Come see it today before it’s too late! **Some photos have been digitally enhanced to show decor
