Description
Tucked deep off the road and hidden from view, this exceptional country estate offers the rare combination of a newly constructed Amish home, productive farmland, premium hunting, and unmatched privacy. Completed in April 2026, the impressive 3,156-square-foot home features five official bedrooms but is currently used as a spacious seven-bedroom residence, with a 616-square-foot basement providing additional storage and flexibility. The property includes a diverse mix of tillable acreage, fenced pasture, and some mixed hardwood timber enrolled in Classified Forest, creating an ideal setting for both recreation and agricultural use. A year-to-year oral farm lease provides income potential while maintaining flexibility for the new owner. Every improvement on the property has been thoughtfully built with quality in mind. The main 24'x84' barn features 13 horse stalls and oversized 18-foot wraparound lean-tos. Additional improvements include a 24'x40' garage/buggy building with an 8-foot overhang, a 24'x36' open-sided pole barn, and a charming 12'x27' cabin with hardwood floors and a wood stove that simply awaits its exterior siding to be completed. (The ice house and grain bin are excluded from the sale.) For the outdoor enthusiast, opportunities are second to none. The property is located in an area renowned for producing world-class whitetails, with 160"+ bucks a realistic possibility year after year. You'll also enjoy direct walk-in access to the 210-acre John Hay Lake, widely regarded as one of the county's premier bass fishing destinations. With water on site, exceptional infrastructure, extreme privacy, productive farmland, and no shortcuts taken in construction, this is a truly turnkey property that is equally suited as a family homestead, working farm, horse property, or premier recreational retreat. Properties offering this level of quality, seclusion, and hunting potential are rarely available.
