Experience an extraordinary retreat on 115 breathtaking acres overlooking the scenic beauty of Black Bear Creek. Protected by the Minnesota Land Trust Conservation program, approximately 105 acres of this remarkable property will remain preserved in their natural state, while 10 buildable acres offer future possibilities and flexibility. This is more than simply a property — it is an opportunity for the next owner to become a true steward of the land, preserving and appreciating its incredible natural beauty for generations to come. This thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 3-bath property is filled with natural light and showcases an impressive variety of wood species throughout, creating a warm and timeless Northwoods feel. Expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape, bringing the outdoors in and highlighting the peaceful setting in every season. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property’s abundant wildlife, including deer, turkey, and small game, along with an incredible 7.3 miles of wide, groomed trails winding throughout the acreage. Whether hiking, hunting, cross county skiing, snowshoeing, or simply exploring, the land offers endless recreation right outside your door. Relax with morning coffee on the spacious front deck overlooking the creek and 3 acre beaver pond, or unwind after a day outdoors in the large sauna with direct access to the rear deck for a true private retreat experience. The property also includes a charming second residence featuring an apartment above the garage — ideal for guests, extended family, or caretaker quarters. Conveniently located near Mille Lacs Lake and the Brainerd Lakes area, this rare property combines privacy and seclusion with easy access to shopping, dining, recreation, and year-round amenities. A unique "three-acre building envelope " further enhances the opportunities this incredible property provides.
