About this home

Escape to where the whisper of pines replaces the rush of the world. Nestled on an acre at the peaceful end of a winding road, this gorgeous 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath, A-frame cabin sits quietly in the majestic foothills of Rib Mountain. Every detail of this secluded wooded haven has been meticulously renewed, boasting a new roof, siding, hardwood floors, drywall, fresh paint, electrical, plumbing, furnace, appliances, and smart tech, plus a spacious 2-car garage and shed. Inside, warmth radiates from the wood-burning fireplace, illuminating pristine new kitchen countertops and timeless design. Outside, adventure unfolds with every season: spend crisp autumn afternoons hunting or hiking local nature trails, enjoy seamless access to the state park, and embrace winter with nearby downhill and cross-country skiing. Whether hosting lively weekend retreats or savoring slow morning coffee wrapped in forest views, this turn-key sanctuary isn't just a home?it is an absolute dream in the woods!
