Tucked deep in the heart of Wisconsin’s Driftless Area, this extraordinary 43-acre property offers unmatched privacy, dramatic scenery, and endless possibilities. Set at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the land is enveloped by mature hardwoods, rolling terrain, and hundreds of adjoining wooded acres—completely free of neighbors or visible development. Wildlife thrives here—deer graze in the meadows, turkeys roam freely, and the landscape is alive with natural wonder. A small pond, 19 planted fruit trees, and a network of established ATV and hiking trails complete the outdoor experience. At the center of the property sits a thoughtfully reimagined farmhouse. Originally built in 1900, the home underwent a full renovation that brought it to near new-construction standards while preserving its rustic charm. All systems were updated, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and spray foam insulation. The exterior features James Hardie siding, Pella Designer Series windows, and ProVia doors. Inside, the kitchen is a showpiece with soapstone countertops, a 36” Ilve gas range, pot filler, tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. White oak flooring runs throughout the main and upper levels, as well as the basement bedroom, while the bathrooms feature porcelain and marble finishes. Two versatile outbuildings expand the property’s potential: a restored 1880s granary set on a new cement foundation with electricity—perfect for a studio, guest space, or workshop—and a 1950s metal quonset hut currently used for storage or greenhouse purposes. Fiber optic internet is available for modern convenience. This is a rare and remarkable offering—a place where nature and comfort coexist in total harmony. Don’t miss your chance to own a private retreat in the heart of the Driftless.
Hunters, Gardeners, Outdoor enthusiasts - enough open land to run a few horses, have gardens, fruit trees, etc, The woodlot is full of maturing hardwoods, is rolling topography joined by hundreds of acres of incredible woods making this nearly inaccessible except on foot. Drive into the prop is majestic, serene, heavenly.. 4 bedrm home has newer foundation, was totally remodeled in 1990's. Beautiful fir floors, large deck w/great views, A very unique property- no offerings like this!
