40 Acres in Hill Point, WI - $729,000

While the neighborhood is great, the included acreage is stunning. As you roll down the level drive, the private valley homesite is revealed. The view in every direction reminds you that you are firmly ensconced in the Driftless Area. Embracing the homesite is approximately seven acres of open land. It was traditionally tillable field and could be again, but the current wildness adds to the beauty. Over a slight ridge another small field is currently in high grass but would be ideal as a wildlife food plot. As you travel up the main ridge past mature hardwoods, glimpses of the Bear Valley unfold. At the ridge, a stand rock protrudes majestically and just begs to be explored. Trekking on, you find that the wooded ridge is accented by an open prairie area with a firepit overlooking the house valley. Leaving this area, the hillside softens on your left and leads you back down towards the house. As you pass multiple large buck rubs, you arrive in the open field behind the house and realize that the hike was challenging but well worth the effort!

The 4105 square foot log home blends seamlessly with this secluded valley. Each window as well as a front porch, screened porch off the main bedroom, and the back patio provide portals for you to embrace the peaceful setting.

The main floor is well configured for one floor living with three bedrooms, laundry room, and the primary living areas all on the ground floor. The attached 2-3 car garage provides convenient access to the laundry room as well as a walkdown to the basement level.

As you enter the guest entry door, you arrive at the great room with soaring ceilings and wood floors. A stone-faced, gas fireplace is framed by picture windows making this room comfortable and well lit. Past an open stairway, the large kitchen and dining room are configured to survey the rear field. Hickory cabinetry and a sit up island bar add to the charm, and a patio off the dining room is perfect for warm weather entertaining.

One end of the house is devoted to a spacious primary bedroom suite. The sleeping area is generous as is the walk-in closet. The ensuite bath features a jetted tub with a view of the yard, a separate shower and large sink area. Through French doors, a screened porch is the perfect place for a private conversation or your morning coffee.

Across the main living area from the primary suite, two comfortable bedrooms are near the full guest bath. Completing the main floor is a laundry room with plenty of storage and a closet for storing coats and boots when entering from the garage.

Up the stairway from the living room, you will find a cozy sitting area. Views on one end overlook the living room, while the other end overlooks the patio area. Log railings and construction provide a secure but warm ambience.

The recently finished basement provides another level of enjoyment. At the bottom of the stairs, a card room with storage closets is ideal for hanging out with friends over a deck of cards or a board game. Nearby, a billiards room adds to the leisure opportunities and a TV/ movie room completes the entertainment options. Two rooms on this floor are currently used as sleeping areas (lack of egress prohibits them from being labeled as bedrooms) and would make ideal hobby rooms. A large bathroom on this level is convenient for those hanging out on this floor. On a practical note, two finished storage rooms (one with a walkup to the garage) and a utilities room provide plenty of space to tuck away your less used items.

Whether used as a primary residence, hunting property or second home retreat, there is so much to love about this property.
