21734 Kuha Road NE , Bemidji, MN 56601(Beltrami County)

This is an absolutely gorgeous property located just north of Bemidji. Bemidji is a vibrant and successful community set in the natural beauty of pristine lakes and forests with a flourishing business sector, top-tier educational and medical facilities, comprehensive transportation, air service and a diverse mix of cultural activities. The salient features of the property include a house and a cabin purposefully located within 229 acres of Northern Minnesota forest. The house is located on the western shore of beautiful Strand Lake. The property encompasses approximately eight tenths of a mile of shoreline. There are several places along the shore that offer excellent building sites. The slope along much of the shore is moderate; with a drop of 15 to 20 feet from the house to the lake. Strand Lake is classified as a Natural Environmental Lake. The 129 acre lake is up to 90 feet deep in places and is relatively shallow in other places. The lake has an outstanding fishery.  You can catch northern pike, largemouth bass, black crappie, sunfish and an occasional walleye. The lake can provide the serenity of an early morning canoe or kayak ride, or a fun place for snowmobiling in the winter.  Ice fishing has always been a favorite winter activity. The lake has also provided excellent hunting for migratory water fowl over the years. The Bemidji area is in the heart of the Mississippi Flyway. There's also excellent hunting for ruffed grouse in this area, and the grouse numbers are climbing. You can also hunt for black bear and it's an excellent location for whitetail deer. There are several stand locations in place for whitetail hunting. The land provides excellent, diverse habitat for the deer, grouse and black bear. There are several fields that have been used for crop production and for pasturing cattle and horses. There is about 80 acres of tillable land and 20 acres of pasture land. There's also about 10 to 12 acres of low brush and grass land that provides a great bedding area for the whitetails. There's a few acres for the yards of the house and cabin, and the remainder of the property is made up of forested land. There are a variety of trees; including oak, maple, birch, aspen, iron wood, white pine, tamarack and elm to name a few. There are hundreds of acres of State Land adjacent to the property to the northeast, east, west and northwest. This provides even more opportunities for hunting, hiking, cross country skiing and many other outdoor activities. It also provides more privacy. A favorite place to hunt is on the adjacent State Land near Swamp Lake; which as the name implies is surrounded by wetlands. A lot of nice bucks have been seen here. The house is in need of a few minor repairs and will be sold as is. The house provides about 900 square feet of living space on the main level. The living room is 20'x14' with a big stone fireplace. The large picture window in the living room offers an excellent view of the lake. The kitchen is 15'x13' with an open, spacious look, and an island stove. The master bedroom has a door going out to the 29'x4' deck, which extends in front of the living room. There's also a 17'x10' deck on the south side of the house. There is a pole barn near the house and another Pole Barn on the north end of the property by the cabin. The pole barns offer ample room for storage. The cabin has been lived in year round recently. Both the house and the cabin have their own electric, wells and septic systems. Both the house and cabin could be refurbished, or a person could build their own house or lodge.

The property definitely offers a lot of possibilities for an investor, a group of people, a corporate retreat, or an individual who is looking for a lot of land to get away from the crowd.  It's a peaceful, secluded paradise.
