Stunning custom log home located on 12.7 acres with mature trees, this property offers privacy, space, and an exceptional setup for equestrian use or a variety of other needs. The land is thoughtfully laid out with fully fenced pastures, automatic waterers, and a total of eight stalls, along with two dedicated tack rooms, making it truly move-in ready for horses. Two large pole buildings include an 80x50 Morton shed and a 50x30 secondary building equipped with water, electricity, lighting, and a concrete floor--ideal for housing horses, tack, equipment, trailers, RVs, or recreational vehicles (30-amp RV hookup in the Morton barn). Additional storage and workspace are provided by a third garage and an extra-deep attached two-car garage featuring a wood-burning stove. The home blends original character with practical updates. The primary bathroom features a walk-in shower and soaking tub with peaceful views of the surrounding acreage. The kitchen offers painted cabinetry, solid glass doors, and a refrigerator added in 2024. Hardwood floors span the main level, with laminate flooring in the kitchen and bathroom. The lower level includes painted cement flooring and flexible space well suited for a family room, exercise area, or play space. Outdoors, the property includes maintained fencing, a designated dog area, and frequent wildlife sightings including deer and sandhill cranes--adding to the serene, country setting. Conveniently located approximately 15 minutes from Forest Lake and just 8 minutes from Chisago or Lindstrom, with easy access to Highway 35 and nearby communities such as Stillwater, Mahtomedi, Blaine, and Lino Lakes.
