Property Description
Hunters, homesteaders, and off-grid enthusiasts will love this Amish-built D-Log home set back 1.13 miles off the last road in Glidden and just east of the Chequamegon National Forest. Set on 80 acres of land with a mix of hardwoods, pines, 10-foot clear-cut trails and two food plots, hunters can enjoy two enclosed hunting blinds or multiple ladder stands ready for the season. There is also a 589-acre privately owned wildlife refuge that borders the west side of the property. The open concept home is 786 square feet with a sleeping loft above the kitchen/dining area. You will feel the warmth as you walk in, finding many antiques that garnish the walls like walking back in time. Many of the furnishings, both new and antique, are slated to remain with the home, making this a turnkey hunting cabin, second home, or off-grid living adventure. The home is powered by a 10,000-watt solar energy system, making this a true off-grid property. For days when there is not enough sun to charge the system, the owners have installed a dual-fuel backup generator. There is a 1,000-gallon, homeowner-owned LP tank used for the generator and the cooking stove. A wood-burning stove in the corner of the living room heats the home all winter long, and two years of wood have been cut, split, and dried ready to keep you warm. Out the front door you will find additional seasonal living space with a covered porch that runs the length of the home. There are two outbuildings alongside the home; one houses the property's 58-foot well pump and is fully insulated, and next to that is the generator building. Off the south side of the home is a three-stall, concrete-floor garage. Inside, there is a 2022 Kubota tractor with many attachments, including a brush hog, snow thrower, box blade, straight blade, bucket, and forks. Also available is a 2023 Skidoo Expedition 900 snowmobile with less than 300 miles. Yes, all this will be included in the sale of this hideaway gem. A barrel sauna just outside the back door and a separate privy make this property a unique off-grid homestead where you can truly escape from everything.
