Sweet established homestead with 40 acres, close to Lake Superior, adjacent to DNR land and the Sioux River! This really special property has a spacious 4 bedrm, 2 bath home with wood heat and good vibes throughout. A nice pole barn serves as 2 car garage with a heated workshop. A rustic cabin by the pole barn could be a bunkhouse, studio, storage... Numerous organically managed garden spaces with herbs, veggies, fruits, and apple trees. There's some fenced pasture for raising animals, and a chicken coop too. The forest on this property is just stunning. These are old mature woods with many huge white and red pines, some maples, an oak here and there, and an impressive trail network to take it all in.
