The pond is equipped with an aerator and creates an exceptional setting right outside your door. Along the pond is a firepit, ready for everything from a quiet evening gathering to larger celebrations with family and friends. It's the kind of feature that transforms an already special property into a place where memories are made.
For the sportsman and hobbyist, the 9.87 acres provide an incredible private setting, with deer herds regularly roaming the property. Whether you enjoy observing wildlife, hunting, working on projects, collecting equipment, gardening, or simply having the space to pursue your hobbies, there is room here to make the property your own.
And then there is the 40' x 30' pole barn - an incredible bonus that adds another level of functionality to this property. Featuring concrete floors, electricity, water, and two overhead doors measuring approximately 14 feet and 12 feet, the pole barn offers tremendous versatility for storage, vehicles, recreational equipment, a workshop, hobbies, or business-related needs, subject to applicable regulations.
The location adds even more appeal. You are approximately 5 minutes from two distinctly different lake experiences. Miner Lake offers fishing and recreation, while Big Lake provides a peaceful, tranquil setting ideal for relaxing and enjoying an evening cruise.
Having both options so close to home is an exceptional lifestyle advantage. The acreage may also offer potential for future land split(s), contingent upon township approval, providing an additional layer of opportunity for the right buyer. Financing flexibility is another advantage, with Conventional, FHA, VA, and MSHDA financing all considered, subject to lender and property qualification requirements.
