Description

Homesteader's Paradise! Off the grid, 37 acres with unobstructed and breathtaking views, a place to ''get away from it all!'' This land parcel offers mixed growth, some mature trees, some grown up farmland, and a stream. There are areas where a homesteader could set up good farm plots. Or, set up ''glamping sites!'' It's the latest fun method to attract renting campers! This location is superb for ATV & Snowsled fun, easy access - the trail is less than 1/8 of a mile from the property!

This land parcel offers mixed growth, some mature trees, some grown up farmland, and a stream. There are areas where a homesteader could set up good farm plots. Or, set up ''glamping sites!'' It's the latest fun method to attract renting campers! This location is superb for ATV & Snowsled fun, easy access - the trail is less than 1/8 of a mile from the property! This is either a 3-season location or you'll need to snowmobile/ski out to the main road, as the town does not plow this road. The off-grid house does have a full foundation and a well on site (not used), and it's a generous layout of rooms (see layout sketches in photos). Some animals have been in, so, while it's a do-able reno project, we don't want you thinking you can slap a little paint on and call it home. The reason buyer must be accompanied for showings: there is an abandoned farmhouse on the premises with an unsafe porch as well as a couple of collapsed outbuildings, so it's a safety issue, so please no touring on your own!
