Own your own peaceful nature sanctuary with this extraordinary 83.5-acre property, 80 acres permanently protected under a conservation easement with the Minnesota Land Trust. A true haven for wildlife and nature lovers, the land features 64 acres of vibrant wetlands, 12 acres of forest, and 4 acres of open grassland, providing critical habitat for native plants, fish, and endangered species like the Blanding's turtle. Whether you're drawn to birdwatching, hiking, hunting, or simply soaking in the serenity, this property offers unmatched opportunities to connect with the natural world. A spacious 35' x 75' pole barn adds versatility, while the 3.5-acre homesite-free from easement restrictions-gives you the freedom to live and build as you wish. The home is warm and welcoming, with new windows and doors installed in 1993, a brand-new mini split system added in 2025, and a thoughtful blend of electric interruptible heating, automatic gas heater back-up upstairs, and a cozy wood stove in the family room. You'll love the handcrafted woodwork around the windows and doors, the elegant maple flooring, six-panel doors throughout, and a beautifully built-in bookshelf along the stairs. The walkout lower level and covered back deck offer the perfect vantage point to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Additional features include a detached two-car garage, an insulated and heated shop, four versatile sheds once used for chickens and doves, and a huge fenced garden area ready for your green thumb. A brand-new septic system will also be installed, adding
peace of mind and modern convenience. This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle rooted in conservation, comfort, and quiet beauty. Property is occupied and showings must be scheduled two hours in advance. This is not a property that can be viewed from the road. Very private.
