Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This offering is 158.8 acres of wooded, rolling terrain suited for hunting and other recreation. The property includes a cabin with electric service, a well, septic, and woodstove heat, along with electric baseboard heat. The main floor provides built-in bunk beds and ample storage for gear, and there is a lower walkout level with an additional sleeping area. Outbuildings include a 10x12 shed with a roll-up door for storage, plus an additional smaller building.
The land sits high and dry with a mix of hardwoods and softwoods, and the listing notes wild raspberries, multiple food plots, and elevated deer stands connected by multiple trails. The parcel borders large adjacent tracts, including 32,000 acres of National Forest on two sides and 40 acres held by a land conservancy on one side. The cabin is approximately 0.6 mile off Coates Highway and is accessed via a driveway and seller-owned 2-track. Nearby recreation described in the remarks includes Tippy Dam, Red Bridge, and access to fishing, kayaking, hiking, and snowmobile trails.
For buyers seeking a private hunting and recreation base, the combination of acreage, internal trails, and built structures supports year-round use. The cabin utilities and on-site storage are practical for extended stays, while the surrounding conservation and National Forest adjacency may appeal to those looking for continued open space.
