Home For Sale

Just beyond the edge of town, a quiet gravel road winds through the woods and opens to a clearing-where the tamaracks turn gold in autumn and a hidden pond mirrors the sky. Minnow Lake sits tucked among the pines and marsh, a place where ducks paddle, deer wander through the shallows, and mornings begin with the soft call of loons echoing across the trees. The home overlooks this landscape, perched in an open yard bordered by boreal forest. It's the kind of setting where you can sip coffee on the porch while mist rises from the lowlands, or walk a trail that feels like your own private nature preserve. Keep chickens in the coop, garden in the open sun, or simply watch the seasons shift around you. Here, every path leads somewhere beautiful-through birch stands, across quiet trails, and back to the comfort of home. With 42 acres of varied terrain, including forest, marsh, and meadow, there's room to roam, relax, and reconnect with the land. Bowen Lake and its public landing is just down the road, adding another layer to this northern Minnesota escape.
