At LandGuys, we say Every Property Tells a Story™. With history reaching back to the 1840s, this one’s story is as rich as they come. Whether you are a history buff, a fan of modern rustic living, a seeker of solitude and natural beauty, a hunter or horse enthusiast, this 83-acre country estate has something for everyone.
Originally constructed in the 1840’s, the once primitive farmstead has been completely transformed into a unique, modern-rustic home of the highest quality. Upon entering the home, visitors often comment that they feel like they are on the Yellowstone Ranch. With 4 bedrooms, 2 baths and 2600 square feet you’ll appreciate the western feel combined with the subtle touches historic architecture. For additional space or maybe possible income, there’s a 700 square foot carriage house above the 3-car attached garage. With the house at the end of a dead end road and sitting just feet from a gently flowing creek, the setting seems straight out of a story book.
Other buildings on the property include an additional 3-car detached garage for all your toys and equipment, a renovated game room cabin and a partially finished cabin that can be made into whatever you desire. All of which share the same rustic style and charm. Up on the hill, a 14-stall horse barn complete with indoor arena, wash station and two-level observation room.
The hunting on the property is excellent. With 50(+/-) acres of timber and marsh, many deer and turkey call this property home. There are ample bedding areas and pronounced deer trails traversing the property. In the recent past, a buck scoring over 200 inches walked this property for two years. Imagine the gene pool he has created! With a large pond in the center of the property, it can offer fishing and waterfowl hunting opportunities as well.
For the horse enthusiasts, the facilities are beautiful and ideal. There is ample pasture and many mowed trails throughout the property creating excellent trail riding. Not a horse person but love the idea of having horses on the property? Consider renting the barn and pasture out for passive income.
This property is easy to fall in love with. You are sure to be impressed by its overall feel and natural beauty. As the owners say, “This property has a soul.” It’s apparent as soon as you drive up on it. Being only 15 minutes from Oconomowoc and easy commutes to Milwaukee and Madison, a person couldn’t ask for much more. This is truly a unique property and once in a lifetime opportunity.
