The property is positioned at the end of a dead-end road with gated access, providing a secluded setting while remaining within convenient driving distance of area lakes, public boat launches, modern conveniences, and year-round recreational opportunities. The land features a blend of mature hardwoods, aspen, and pine across rolling terrain. High ground transitions into lowland bedding cover, with multiple open water ponds and a meandering creek that flows into nearby Elbow Lake. This combination of habitat types supports a variety of wildlife and creates an attractive setting for outdoor recreation and hunting. An established trail system provides access throughout the property to existing stand locations and several areas suitable for food plots. The property borders hundreds of acres of county-owned land, expanding opportunities for hunting and exploration. Wildlife commonly found in the area includes deer, black bear, ruffed grouse, wild turkey, and waterfowl. It's located in Deer Zone 298 and Bear Zone 46. The surrounding region is also well known for fishing, boating, ATV riding, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. Utilities are already in place, including a private, 4" drilled well, septic system, electricity, and high-speed internet service. There is also a private gravel pit on the property for personal use in maintaining the driveway and trails. The primary building is a 56' x 30' shouse constructed in 2009. The year-round living quarters include approximately 900 square feet with one bedroom, one-and-a-half bathrooms, and a spacious open-concept kitchen and living area featuring vaulted ceilings, tile flooring, hickory cabinetry, and generous storage. The primary suite includes a private bathroom, while a half bath serves the main living area. An 18' x 13' three-season porch with expansive windows provides views of the surrounding landscape. Additional features include a large mudroom and laundry area with two sinks and plenty of countertop space for processing game and fish. A below-ground 8' x 12' concrete storm shelter provides additional storage potential and may also be used as a root cellar. Attached to the residence is a 780-square-foot shop measuring 30' x 26'. The shop includes two 14-foot overhead doors, a 20-foot concrete apron, and overhead storage above the living quarters, offering ample room for equipment, recreational vehicles, boats, or workshop space. Also located on the property is a seasonal cabin offering approximately 756 square feet of living space with three bedrooms, one bathroom, a full kitchen with a gas stove, and forced-air heat. The cabin provides additional accommodations for family members or guests. The property is conveniently located near numerous area lakes, including: Elbow, Little Bemidji, Tulaby, Many Point, Bad Medicine, Long Lost, and Juggler lakes, all offering public boat access within a short drive.
