Looking for a special retreat? Nestled in nature & distinctive township of Holyoke, MN, this 40 acres of land offers the perfect balance of seclusion & accessibility. Conveniently located between Duluth and Sandstone & just minutes from the Nemadji State Forest, this quaint one-bedroom, one-bath rustic home sits on an expansive 40 acres of pristine land. The home features a functional, main-level layout with the kitchen, living room, and dining area all open with a wood burning stove in the middle. The original hardwood floors add to the charm. Two porches invite you to relax & take in the surrounding natural beauty. The lofted upstairs bedroom has an extra area that would be great for an office. Frontier & Starlink are internet options. The basement would make a great recreation room. The 3-car garage is large enough to be a shop & to house your favorite toys.

New septic in 2021. The seller has enjoyed this home & land for the last 22 years & is ready for the next owner to love it for the next 20 years! This home has been pre-inspected.
