Country living on 8+ wooded acres with a private pond — minutes from Hwy 53 between Rice Lake and Spooner. This 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath raised ranch is tucked into the heart of Washburn County's lake country near Sarona. The main level offers an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen space under vaulted knotty pine ceilings, with a wall of windows framing the woods, butcher block counters, stainless appliances, and a stone-accented breakfast bar with seating. Patio doors open to the backyard patio and fire pit. The finished lower level adds a large family room, second full bath, and a bonus room perfect for a home office, den, or hobby room. Outside: detached 2-car garage, storage shed, concrete patio, and trails winding through mature hardwoods to your own pond — ideal for hunting, recreation, and wildlife watching. Shell Lake school district, close to area lakes, ATV/snowmobile trails, and everything the Northwoods offers. Full-time home, weekend getaway, or hunting basecamp.
