12490 150th Street N, Marine on Saint Croix, MN 55047

Property Description

There are homes that check boxes, and then there are homes that change how you think about where you want to live. This five-acre property in Marine on St. Croix is decidedly the latter ? a place where Bass Lake shimmers through the trees, owls call out after dark, and the rhythm of daily life runs a little slower and more intentionally than most people thought was still possible this close to the Twin Cities. Two-stories with a walkout lower level, this home is full of natural light, is freshly painted throughout and its maple floors were recently refinished. The kitchen delivers ? granite countertops, a center island with prep sink, a coffee bar, and cabinetry that means business. An informal eating area looks out over the backyard and opens into the log great room, where a wood-burning fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling stone surround ? built from rocks found right on the property ? makes this room genuinely remarkable. The main floor has all the spaces you could hope for including a formal dining area, large mudroom, and a great home office. Upstairs, the primary suite overlooks the lake with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and full bath and walk in shower. Three additional bedrooms upstairs, and an unfinished lower level roughed in for a bath, wet bar, and gas fireplace round out the space and offer instant equity upon finishing. The exterior spaces that make this place so special include a large deck, an enclosed garden, a chicken coop (can include the flock!) and a pole barn with 440-amp service and set the stage for genuine country living. Private wooded trails connect with neighboring properties, a dock launches summer kayaking and fishing, and county snowmobile trails run right through the neighborhood. Stillwater and Marine on St. Croix are minutes away, with William O'Brien State Park, Big Marine Park Reserve, and the Gateway Trails all close at hand. Rural living that doesn't ask you to give anything up ? it simply offers more. Make sure to see videos including on social media, as well as floorplans and home feature list.
