Remarks
Marathon County Legacy Estate north of Athens in beautiful northwest Marathon County! This exclusive property offers 193 meticulously maintained acres of timber, fields and trails with a gorgeous Ojibwa Log Home overlooking an expansive yard. The offering has limitless potential as a trophy hunting legacy property, a full time residence, and/or a corporate retreat. The 1,526 square foot 2+ bed / 1 bath home with high end finishes has been extremely well cared for. Modern appliances, tile and wood floors, custom cabinets and trim is just the beginning. The fully finished basement includes a generously-sized bedroom and an additional family room. The open-air loft is 300 square feet and offers additional space. The 40’ x 36’ post frame heated garage has 10’ sidewalls. The home has a dual fuel heating system with a Prestige Wall Mount Gas Boiler and a Central Boiler Classic outside wood burner. A large back deck is off the main entrance and a full-length, covered porch provides a wonderful place to view the large, wildlife-filled back yard. The home is offered fully furnished. The beauty and accessibility of the 193 acres must be seen to be appreciated. The roads and trails are thoughtfully designed and the best maintained the potential buyer will have ever seen on any central Wisconsin property. Culverts, ditches, scrapes, and several small ponds have been created to ensure the land stays high and dry. There are several spots that can be converted into food plots. The rolling ridges, flats, and draws serve as natural travel funnels for all wildlife. Trophy deer, bear, turkey, and ruffed grouse are prevalent. 730 acres of DNR land on the east brackets the Big Rib River, a trout stream, and offers even more room to explore. The Managed Forest Law - Closed plan on the eastern 120 acres is well throughout, allows for a very affordable yearly property tax bill, and ensures ample future revenue. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a turnkey wilderness retreat.
