Tucked away on nearly six acres in the City of Baxter, this log home feels less like a house and more like a private Northwoods retreat. The moment you turn in, the world slows down. Trees surround you, wildlife moves through the property daily, and the land itself invites you to wander, explore, and breathe a little deeper. The wide front porch quickly becomes a favorite spot — perfect for slow mornings with coffee, porch swinging, or watching the seasons change. In the evenings, the fire pit draws everyone outside for quiet conversations under the stars, while trails throughout the property offer peaceful walks and hidden corners to discover year-round. There’s something especially meaningful about this home’s story: much of the lumber used to build it was taken directly from the land itself, giving the space a connection to the property you can truly feel. Inside, the layout is both comfortable and practical, with a generous mudroom that supports an active, outdoors-focused lifestyle. Fall brings stunning color and crisp air, while summer fills the yard with wildlife and long, golden evenings. Even with all this privacy and space, you’re still just minutes from Baxter’s schools, shopping, and Whipple Beach — a rare balance of seclusion and convenience. The property also offers a deep two-stall garage, a lean-to with kennel space, and a pole barn ready for projects, storage, or future plans. Major updates include a new septic system (2018), furnace and central air (2020), updated appliances (2022), and a professionally treated log exterior in excellent condition. This is a place for people who want room to grow, garden, landscape, homestead, or simply find peace in a setting that feels worlds away — without ever leaving town. It’s one of those properties that makes sense on paper, but truly comes alive when you stand on the porch and take it all in.
