About this home
Secluded, self-sufficient, and rich with character, this thoughtfully designed off-grid home on 34.1 acres offers privacy, abundance, and flexibility. Located off a publicly maintained road just minutes from Lake Eden, the Cajun Snack Bar, and the interstate, this property features a drilled well with hand pump, on-site septic, underground power (Can be reconnected easily), and a solar system with battery storage. The one-bedroom cabin is heated by a high-efficiency wood stove features a covered cedar porch, handcrafted wood-fired pizza oven, pavilion, and a mouldering privy. The current mudroom is used as a commercial bakery space and could convert beautifully to a proper entry or bonus room. A back pantry offers ventilated cold food storage or future finished space. Enjoy walking trails, blueberries, herbs, perennial beds, and fruit trees—peach, pear, and apple, plus abundant wildlife and foraging opportunities. Parking is available at the base of the lot with a short walk to the home, perfect for those seeking quiet and seclusion. Benefit from reduced taxes, thanks to credits from the nearby wind turbines. Whether you’re dreaming of a homestead, rental, or nature retreat, this off-grid gem is ready to go.
