Description

Very large, Southern facing lot, very private bay and a point with multiple opportunities for development. MN Power leased land. Stands of Birch, Pine and winding trains through the properties woods await. The lot to the West, SW, won't be developed as there is a creek that runs right through the middle of it. Because of this, the feeling one experiences while at this property is of over 700 ft of private shoreline. This is an incredibly private place. As this property was beginning to be developed,...Very large, Southern facing lot, very private bay and a point with multiple opportunities for development. MN Power leased land. Stands of Birch, Pine and winding trains through the properties woods await. The lot to the West, SW, won't be developed as there is a creek that runs right through the middle of it. Because of this, the feeling one experiences while at this property is of over 700 ft of private shoreline. This is an incredibly private place. As this property was beginning to be developed, the 2018 septic system was designed and installed to accommodate a 4 bedroom home and was relocated across the road to increase development options.
