On-site electric is installed, high-speed fiber optic internet is available, and a state-approved septic and well design for a 3-bedroom build site is already on file—allowing you to move forward with development plans without delay. Accessed by a gated driveway, offering a rare combination of privacy, usable land, and existing infrastructure providing you a head start. The original cabin is ready for renovation or replacement, while additional newer cabins are framed shells with power already run to the structures. Some cabins also include wood stoves, allowing for immediate seasonal use while you continue improving the property over time. The land features a mix of rolling terrain, open clearings, and wooded acreage, offering both privacy and flexibility for a homestead, recreational retreat, or multi-cabin compound. Established driveway provides easy access into the property. A rare opportunity to secure a large, private parcel with meaningful infrastructure already in place. Use it immediately while building your vision, or develop the property further to suit your needs. Properties offering this level of acreage, privacy, river access, and utilities are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
