This is a stunning 210 acre lot with an old farm house and 2 car garage that need repair or replacement and has approximately 190 acres of mature forest with approx 20 acres of pasture/hay field along the County road. This property is bordered by nearly 2 miles (10,160 ft) of shoreline along the Little Fork river. To the North, The Little Fork river connects to the Rainy River and the Canadian border with phenomenal fishing opportunities including sturgeon! The forest has wide trails throughout, with deer stands strategically placed and it is holds a lot of wildlife specifically deer. Imagine fixing up the old house to the beautiful home that it was in the past. The framework and foundation are strong but it needs some TLC to bring it back to its glory. The hard wood floors are original and would look beautiful if they were refinished. You could also build your dream home here… the possibilities are endless! There is a creek that comes off of river and flows behind the house which is where the first homesteaders probably gathered their water. This property is only a few miles from International Falls or Little Fork so you’re in the country, but close enough to civilization get get whatever you may need. This property is a must see and has not been for sale for 120 years.
