Dont just purchase a property, own an experience! This pristine valley setting encapsulates the most desired features of Southwest Wisconsins Driftless Region: impressive water features, wooded hillsides, rich valley soil and pasture land, privacy, prime hunting, and exceptional trout fishing. The Bad Axe River, an enhanced class 1 trout stream, flows the length of these 60 acres. The cool waters of the Bad Axe River create two large swimming holes, and the Finish wood burning sauna sits along one of them. In every season, people enjoy taking the plunge after soaking in the sauna heat. Its an experience unlike any other. A very large heavy flowing spring head, covered with watercress in the summer, provides gallons and gallons of fresh water all year round. With all of this water, the setting is ideal for animals. There are two separate pastures. The 6-7 acre pasture is NW of the Bad Axe river and has 5 strand 12.5ga barbed wire fencing. The 4-5 acre pasture SE of the Bad Axe has 3 strand 15ga barbed wire fencing and was fenced May of 2016. The contemporary style 3-bedroom cedar-sided home has an open concept design and features many natural materials including timbers from an 1860 Iowa barn and hardwood floors of which some are reclaimed maple. The windows bring in plenty of natural light and open you to the serene outdoors surrounding. The large living room area with its stone-faced wood burning fireplace insert has been used and is conducive for large gatherings, meetings and even classes. There is a main floor master bedroom & bathroom with a walk-in closet as well as a private deck. All three decks, of which one is partially covered, overlook the beautiful valley setting below. The yard is professional landscaped. This house supplements its utility usage with solar power. There is even an outdoor adobe pizza oven housed in timber frame construction. Unique to this home is its set-up and current use as a VRBO (Vacation Rental by Owner). The sellers live in an apartment in the lower level which includes a kitchen/living area while renting out the main floor and upper level. Guests love to get away from the city and enjoy, sometimes for the first time, the many country living experiences this property offers. A 24x40 barn with two 12x24 lean-tos includes a chicken coop, large haymow area and additional storage. It sits along one of the properties three ponds. The well-established garden, with its garden shed, grows all the vegetables youd expect with the addition of hops and asparagus. There is even a large raspberry patch. Whether you are looking for a ranch, country home, hobby farm or recreational property, this property offers the rare occasion to own some of the best that Vernon County has to offer. Any showings need to work around the VRBO guest schedule. 48102-12390
