Description
Located in western Wright County between Howard Lake and Waverly, this 54± acre surveyed property offers a combination of tillable land and recreational use opportunities. The property sits immediately south of Highway 12 and is accessed by a recorded 66 foot wide deeded access off Hart Ave SW, providing established legal access to the parcel.
The property contains approximately 39± acres of tillable ground. According to the seller, there will be roughly 25 acres in row crop for 2026 and the balance is being harvested for sod by a third party. When the sod is harvested, these acres are converted over to traditional row crops (corn/soybeans). The seller states that the sod production in 2025 generated roughly $1,000 in income at approximately $0.25 per sod roll.
The traditional row crop acre income estimates for 2026 according to the seller is approximately $5,300. As of right now, the tillable land has “open tenancy” if someone want to run or rent the land out themselves in 2026 Sod production would then be an addition to this if a new buyer decides to continue the agreement. There is no obligation or contract requiring sod production, allowing future owners to determine the agricultural direction best suited to their plans.
The property includes existing drainage features consisting of open ditches along with portions of installed drainage tile that support agricultural usability. The relatively level terrain and established field history may provide efficiency for farming operations, subject to buyer verification and management practices.
While the property is primarily open ground, it also presents recreational potential. During initial site visits, turkey activity was observed on the western portion of the property. Wildlife presence in the area may be influenced by the nearby Twelve Mile Creek corridor located to the east and southeast, which serves as a natural travel route for wildlife. A future owner could explore habitat improvements such as strategic food plots or leaving portions of acreage unharvested to encourage seasonal wildlife use. Any habitat or hunting outcomes will depend on management decisions and surrounding land use.
The location offers convenient proximity to several surrounding communities. Waverly lies approximately 5 miles east, while Howard Lake is roughly 5 miles west. Buffalo, a larger regional center with additional services and amenities, is about 12 miles northeast. Access to Highway 12 allows for travel toward the western Twin Cities metropolitan area, which is approximately 43 miles east of Howard Lake.
This parcel may appeal to buyers seeking productive acreage with income potential, agricultural expansion ground, or a recreational holding with opportunities for habitat development. Buyers are encouraged to complete standard due diligence regarding zoning, land use regulations, drainage systems, and agricultural suitability.
