: In the 1830's Chief Blackhawk & his band of Sac-Fox fought a pitched battle with American Militia in this beautiful oak forested valley near the Mississippi River. Today, the sound of the whippoorwill cascades across lush woodlands that encompass this unique valley setting. Enjoy fishing in a spring fed 3 acre pond that lies at the base of 184 acres of wooded common ground that is included in the purchase of this 17.95 acre wooded property... A private maintained dead end road serves the property. This secluded acreage is located only 2 1/2 miles from a myriad of quiet backwater sloughs, channels, sandbars, lily pad fields, and huge maple forests of the Upper Mississippi Fish & wildlife refuge, a vast recreational resource. The common area, home to American bald eagles, also adjoins a 200 acre Aldo Leopold state natural area as well as 800 acres of managed forest land open to hunting, hiking, and wildlife observation. Sit out by a campfire on a starry night in a secluded woodland setting & see a thousand fireflies ascending from the sweet grass of the valley floor and mix with the twinkling universe. This custom, owner built, (owner is building contractor) (2,944 sq foot) three bedroom, two bath, two car attached cedar sided home on a full basement is located in a very secluded setting with end of the road privacy. This picturesque property, has been attractively landscaped with a three foot deep ornamental pond and appealing fragrant perennials, lovingly set amidst a carefully placed boulder rock wall that attract numerous songbirds. Enjoy these songbirds as well as the deer, squirrels and turkey that frequent the back yard and 13’x 24’ deck and surrounding wooded hills that encompass this valley property. Along with a 26’x26’ two car attached garage is a large 28’x36’ workshop with attached 10x28 car port. This carefully crafted home was constructed with the finest materials. White oak flooring with hand crafted inlays (black walnut, maple, light and dark Brazilian cherry and hickory) accent the kitchen/great room and seven foot wide by nine foot high stone gas fireplace. Ceiling height in great room is 15 ½ feet. The study/office has been trimmed with raised poplar panels. Pediment heads have been installed above doors and windows. All trim in home is 5 ½ inch poplar trim. All inside doors are 6 panel solid core. Expansive Kolbe low E windows throughout provide lots of natural light. Ceiling fans in the great room and bedrooms. Three large bedrooms (14’7”x13’6”, 13’x12’, 13’x12’) with lots of closets (his and hers walk in closets in the master bedroom) and two full baths are tastefully decorated. The master bath has a large walk in shower and 27’ deep whirlpool tub all encased in cedar with a five foot vanity and mirror. The kitchen comes complete with stainless steel appliances (Amana bottom freezer fridge, three foot wide Viking Stove with griddle, and Bosch Dishwasher) and Moen Plumbing fixtures throughout the home. Maple cabinets with mocha inlay. Over 64 sq feet of kitchen counter space, including a 3’x8’ island. A large pantry offers plenty of room for storage. The same floor laundry room offers lots of space and a large rinsing sink. The home is heated with Amana forced air furnace (LP) and has Amana central air. An Energy King Wood Furnace (hooked up to forced air) can provide energy savings (Dual Heat) or augment the gas in case of a power outage. Property is served by drilled well and septic. If you desire a property with no immediate neighbors, this is it. The owner has purchased five building acreages to secure the entire valley for the ultimate in privacy.
