About This Home

As of October 2024

151 acres of pure serenity! This property has NEVER been on the market! Built in 1907, this old farm homestead has been passed down from generation to generation until now. Tucked away on a private road you can truly escape to the wilderness here! There are a multitude of hunting and ATV/UTV trails throughout the land along with over 3000 ft. of frontage on Maki Creek. The cabin has a newer poured slab foundation, a living room addition, two bedrooms and a charming vintage wood fired stove! It is wired with electric but also still features the old propane lights, ready to fire up if hooked up to a propane tank. Additionally, there is a drilled well located in its own pump house, sauna complete with changing area, two storage sheds, and a camper for overflow friends and family. The land includes an abundance of beautiful towering trees, most planted when the owners were just young children. There are also a few patches of raspberry trees throughout! Located just down the road from the historic Toimi School, this is a truly unique property! Call today for a private showing.
