Most properties in this price range ask you to choose. You get the house, or you get the ground. This one does not make you choose, and that is the reason it is worth a look. The home was built in 2005, and it was not built to a budget. It runs about 4,970 square feet with five bedrooms and three and a half baths, a main floor master, two bedrooms up, and two in the finished lower level. The two lower-level bedrooms are non-conforming; the lower level does have two exterior entrances and a large picture window. The first floor got new mesquite hardwood flooring in 2023 along with fresh paint and new blinds, and most of the house has been painted in the past three years. The kitchen carries JennAir, Fisher & Paykel dish drawers, and an LG refrigerator. What sets the mechanicals apart is in-floor heat, and not just in the house. Both the home and the 46 by 64 shop are heated that way, and the boilers in both were replaced three to five years ago. A new air conditioner and air exchanger went into the home this summer. That is roughly 7,900 square feet of living and shop space on in-floor heat, which is a real operating advantage here in February and something almost nothing else on the market can claim. One of the two ponds sits in view of the home, so the outlook from the main living space is the wooded back entertaining yard with the pond around the corner rather than a road or a neighboring roofline. The shop is the piece that separates this from everything else nearby. Inside there is a one-bedroom, one-bath apartment, a golf simulator room, a climbing wall, a basketball hoop, an indoor-outdoor dog kennel, a covered porch, and a 12-foot lean-to. The apartment is a finished living space with its own entrance, which means guest quarters, a hunting camp bunkhouse, or a place to put someone up for a season without anyone giving up the main house. Then there is the ground. It is essentially all timber, rolling Blue Hills terrain, with several maintained trails already cut and seven deer stands already hung. Someone has been working this place, not just owning it, and they have owned it for fifteen years. Two ponds hold water and pull wildlife through. Whitetail deer, bear, turkey, and small game use this kind of cover, and the trail network means a new owner can hunt it the first fall without spending a season figuring out how to move through it. The timber is not enrolled in Managed Forest Law, so a buyer is free to manage, harvest, or enroll it on their own terms. Around the buildings there is extensive perennial landscaping and a raised vegetable garden, and the whole thing sits at the end of a gravel road with timber standing from the road back to the improvements. Rice Lake is a short drive for groceries, fuel, and medical, and Christie Mountain is fifteen to twenty minutes out for downhill skiing. A heated shop with finished living quarters, water, trails, mature timber and a home that is ready to move into. Properties that carry all of it do not come up often in this market.
