About this home
Welcome to a home that perfectly blends the warmth of country living with the convenience of being just minutes from Delano, Buffalo, Hwy 12, and only 30 minutes from the Twin Cities. Inside, you’ll find an inviting open floor plan filled with natural light, designed with many windows that connect you seamlessly to the outdoors. The spacious kitchen underwent a complete renovation in 2017, featuring custom Alder cabinetry, a huge island, a wall oven, and stainless steel appliances, making it the heart of the home. The main floor is highlighted by stylish tongue-and-groove ceilings, while French doors open to a large concrete patio—ideal for enjoying breathtaking sunsets across the back five acres while entertaining. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full laundry room with utility sink and cabinets, and an attached heated garage, the home offers both comfort and function. Recent updates include a new patio (2017), lower-level bath finish (2018), upper-level bath remodel (2019), landscaping upgrade (2020), new carpet, trim, and doors upstairs (2021), a lower-level remodel (2022), and new roofing on the home and all barns except the small red barn (2022).
The property itself is a rare find—10 tranquil acres, fully protected by woods on all sides for privacy. Enjoy quiet, low-traffic paved road access, abundant wildlife from deer to swans, and plenty of room to explore with a creek, wooded trails, an apple grove, pasture, and a flat yard for recreation. Three large outbuildings with electricity include a 30x150 barn, a 30x60 storage building, and a 40x100 pole shed. These offer ample space for personal storage, hobbies, or additional passive income—currently generating $18,000 a season from boat and car storage, helping to supplement your mortgage or fund future improvements.
Beyond the amenities, this home delivers an exceptional lifestyle: free internet, geothermal heating for comfort and energy savings, a community-oriented town, and the highly sought-after Delano School District. Whether it’s watching the sunset with loved ones, enjoying the peace and quiet of a private retreat, or benefiting from the convenience of nearby communities, this property offers it all.
As the sellers share, “We have loved living at this modern country home because of the spacious, quiet, and secluded setting with acres for all of us and animals to run and play. The home and property provided acres of opportunity for us to grow, expansion of the recently renovated house, and access to hobbies like hunting, raising animals, and enjoying the outdoors right out your back door."
