17910 27th Avenue, Clearwater, MN 55320 - Stearns County

This 54 +/- acre property is a wildlife mecca with pristine opportunities for solid Minnesota whitetail, turkeys, and the occasional pheasant. Located just west of Clearwater, Minnesota, and only an hour from the Twin Cities, this recreational tract sits in a very convenient location secluded at the end of a quiet dead-end road. Winding through the property is a well-maintained trail system for easy access. An artesian well trickles through the property offering a year-round water source for wildlife represented as a highly desirable feature due to the abundance of deer and turkey sign bordering the stream all year long. The staggered terrain presents great bedding areas for deer. Acorn-producing oak trees offer an additional food source for wildlife as well as perfect roost trees for turkeys. On top of this, a couple of areas throughout the property allow the ability to plant concealed food plots to add another beneficial element to this tract. With all of the essential elements for wildlife combined with extremely low hunting pressure on the property over the last decade, this property is truly a rare hidden gem!

At the end of the long private drive sits the beautiful lodge-style log home, custom built in 2004, presenting a variety of opportunities whether you want to utilize it as a luxurious hunting lodge, to raise your family, or to start a new chapter of your life - the possibilities are endless. With over 2,200 square feet, the main floor boasts towering vaulted ceilings in the living room with a magnificent 2-story fireplace ready to be custom-finished to your preference. The kitchen has beautiful granite countertops and custom Amish-built cabinets with the open-concept leading into the dining room allowing for multiple seating locations around the table or high-top counter. The main floor bathroom is also located in a great spot for privacy adjacent to the common areas. As you head upstairs you will be met with a wrap-around catwalk and a loft holding the master bedroom with windows overlooking the garden and wooded backyard, the master bathroom, and a walk-in closet. The unfinished basement has an open floor plan with a large walkout area, a laundry room, a canning room preserving vegetables, fruits, etc. from the garden, as well as a door connecting to the single-stall garage. Large windows surround the home bringing in an abundance of natural light and allowing you to view the tranquil outdoor setting and wildlife all day long. If you want another bedroom, the covered deck was built as a foundation for an additional bedroom if you wish to add on. When the weather is nice, head outside to the covered wrap-around deck to enjoy the wildlife and peaceful setting. This property is genuinely one-of-a-kind and one you won’t want to miss out on!
