Youll find this proud property 4-miles outside of Viola nestled in the rolling bluffs of Gods County. Enter the estate off of County Hwy MM, which leads you to a +/- 1,440sq ft ranch style home. The one-story house features 4-bedrooms, 2-bathrooms and even an overflow room for guests. Everything you may need is already on-site, including a well, septic, electric, LP forced air furnace and coveted high-speed fiber optic internet connection! Theres even a small storage shed adjacent from the house for storing your toys. Unlike most areas in rolling ridge country, cell service is typically not a problem here. The basecamp sits at a sky-high 1,230ft in elevation overlooking miraculous views of cascading bluffs plummeting into deep valleys. Some would simply purchase this tract for the views alone, however, theres so much more to this majestic real estate than the backdrop.
Theres well over a miles worth of ATV trail systems that negotiate the landscape providing seamless access into the grounds. This provides unlimited ingress/egress into treestands, recovering game, hiking trails and more. At the very heart of the valley bottom, youll find an ancient cold-water stream that stems from Camp Camp Creek to the north, which is a Class 1 Trout Stream. The waterway is blessed with an assortment of natural springs bubbling from these very ridges providing a year-round water source for wildlife.
This tract has been seller owned for well over 20+ years and utilized as a deer hunting camp and seasonal family getaway. A dominant stand of timber decorates the terrain that hasnt been touched in over 35+ years per seller! Strong pockets of oak, hickory and some walnut cover the canopy. Whats most fascinating is the property layout. Theres a mind-blowing 11-ridge knobs combined with 12-ravines that serve as spectacular deer bedding areas and travel routes. This tract hunts impressively big due to the land makeup. Theres about 130+/- acres of densely forested land with 8.5+/- acres of pasture ground. Youll even find a couple food plots on the southeasterly corner!
Deer trails spill down the tops and crisscross the valley bottoms like an inner-city HWY system. Theres simply a lot of character and structure on this piece of ground that not only holds deer, but grows them. Spectacular rock formations just add to the beauty. These rock outcroppings dominate the blufftops in pure grandeur. If youre looking for the right place to spend your weekends or full-time, this would be my go-to place. Due north of the property, theres nearly 400ac +/- of public land to expand your adventures. Youll find year-round pleasure in this coveted neighborhood. From morel mushroom hunting to trout fishing and everything in between.
The land is NOT enrolled in any Managed Forest Land program, but certainly can be. The taxes are currently $6,640/annually per 2020 tax summary. For those looking to see those taxes shrink, you may enroll the land in MFL-Closed. For those looking to capitalize on their investment, theres some timber ready to harvest. As youve seen over the course of the last few months, recreational estates like this do not last long. Im going to forewarn you that if you dont act quick, this too, will be nothing more than a dream. Now is the time to take advantage of this primo Southwest Wisconsin estate.
