About This Home

25988 185th Avenue

Discover the charm and tranquility of this authentic 1953 rural hobby farm, nestled on 5.71 acres of picturesque land. This beautifully maintained property features thoughtful additions, creating a truly unique and hard-to-find home with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and an office/flex room. Natural light floods through Anderson windows, framing stunning views of the outdoors. Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout, with ¾ inch hardwood floors and superior materials in every detail. The master bedroom is a true retreat, boasting a vaulted ceiling and private bath. Surrounded by nature, this lovely home is situated in a serene environment with abundant wildlife and a magnificent pond that attracts various species of birds and animals. The property includes multipurpose buildings, such as a detached 20x24 two-car garage/storage, and a block barn ready for farm animals or versatile use. The 40x60 building with 12' side walls is perfect for cattle, horses, or equipment storage, while the 20x40 lean structure is ideal for horses, cattle, and more. These buildings have been meticulously updated by an Amish carpenter. The house itself has been largely reconstructed as a new build, seamlessly integrating with the original 1953 structure. Recent updates include electrical systems, a newer roof, septic, and siding. There is potential to purchase an adjacent 4.8 acres of land that features a 120x70 bldg w/16' sidewalls, currently used as a horse riding arena/large (semi-trailer, tractor, vehicle, equipment) storage/business opportunity that includes a generously 18x30 insulated/heated addition for office area/tack room/workroom. The outdoors is a haven for hobby farming or recreational use, with ample space to enjoy the beauty and joy of wildlife encounters. The property features a paver patio, a beautifully landscaped yard that offers constant color throughout the seasons, and a private arboretum with an incredible variety of trees, shrubs, and perennials. Fruit-bearing trees such as apple, plum, cherry, pear, and crabapple, along with small fruits like grapes, blueberries, black and red raspberries, and rhubarb, provide fresh produce for eating, baking, or canning. The vegetable garden yields fresh asparagus and horseradish. With over $50,000 worth of ornamental trees, shrubs, and perennials, the property is a gardener's paradise. Conveniently located near several large and small communities, you'll have access to dining, entertainment, shopping, recreation, hiking, exploring, and discovering the wonders of nature. Enjoy proximity to golf courses, snowmobile trails, four-wheeler trails, dirt roads for horseback riding, and numerous lakes and rivers for boating, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, and fishing. Experience country living at its finest with this exceptional property. There's so much to enjoy and explore!
