Rare opportunity to own a 4 bedroom, 3 bath log home on over 6 gorgeous acres backing up to towering pines in beautiful Elk River! The views from the windows are truly breathtaking—you’ll feel completely immersed in nature, yet just minutes from everyday convenience. Start your mornings with coffee on the expansive front deck. Rustic details like wagon wheel lighting, lantern fixtures, thick rope outlining the log joints, and bold black hardware give this home its true character and charm. The soaring vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and skylights draws your eye to the stunning floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace—perfect for cozying up on cold nights. Upstairs you'll find two spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with a massive walk-in closet. The home also offers excellent potential for generational living or income-producing use with a ready-to-go mother-in-law suite, complete with its own kitchen, coved ceiling, and separate entrance that leads to a 18x9 three-season porch. This is truly a diamond in the rough—the kitchen just needs your personal touch to make it shine again! The garage provides ample storage, including a third "stall" that’s two cars deep—ideal for lawn equipment or a hobby workspace. The garage features 8-foot doors and a massive steel beam with an overhead winch, making it a mechanic’s dream. The flat roof over the garage is reinforced to support the three-season porch above. Additional features include: sloped roof (11 years old) with extra rubber membrane to prevent ice dams, septic system (6 years old), furnace and A/C (2004), both serviced in 2024, furnace humidifier (2020), water heater (2013), pressure tank (2013), and water softener (2015). Located near the Sherburne Wildlife Refuge and the Sand Dunes State Forest—this home offers a unique blend of seclusion, charm, and convenience!
