Rare opportunity to own 40+ acres of bluff country paradise less than 30 minutes from Rochester and Mayo Clinic. This well-maintained, custom-built rambler sits at the heart of a working rural landscape with approximately 20 tillable acres currently generating agricultural rental income which offers full flexibility for the new owner to continue or redirect. The remaining acreage is wooded with oak, walnut, and cedar, providing exceptional wildlife habitat and front-row views of the rolling Fillmore County hills. Step inside and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace commands attention before the panoramic views take over. The main level features nine-foot ceilings, a soaring 17-foot great room, and an open layout designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The primary suite offers a spa-caliber bath with granite countertops and a large walk-in closet. Every bedroom includes its own walk-in closet. The lower level bar and living area is built for gatherings, with a full walkout basement, gas fireplace, and family room that opens to the outdoors. The land is actively managed for wildlife. A planted food plot seeded with a radishes and oats mix supports a mature deer population. Turkey and abundant native wildlife are a regular presence. Nearby access to the river and trout fishing streams extends the outdoor opportunities well beyond the property lines. West-facing with spectacular sunset views, the property also sits minutes from Lanesboro's trail system and a half mile from a canoe launch on the Root River. A landscaped waterfall and pond, firepit, and covered deck make the most of the natural setting. A 30x36 steel building with concrete flooring handles workshop equipment, recreational vehicles, and serious storage. The heated attached two-car garage adds year-round convenience. Concrete driveway, paved road frontage, compliant septic, and shared well round out a solid infrastructure package. Just 10 minutes to Chatfield, 12 miles to Lanesboro's famous bike trails, and a half mile to a canoe launch on the Root River. This is rural Minnesota at its finest. Come for the land, stay for the life.
