31258 E 325th Ave Lanesboro, MN 55971

Listing details for 31258 E 325th Ave, Lanesboro, MN 55971 : Located southeast of Bucksnort and Pilot Mound and north of Lanesboro, Minnesota, this 130+/- acre property offers the type of setting that makes southeast Minnesota's Driftless Region so appealing to land and recreational buyers. Situated at the end of a dead-end gravel road, the property combines seclusion, buildability, rolling terrain, diverse wildlife habitat, and approximately 230+ acres of landlocked state land adjoining the southwest side. The layout of this property is one of its strongest features. Multiple ridges and draws run through the acreage, creating natural travel corridors and numerous options for hunting different winds and access routes. This is a property that feels and hunts much larger than its 130+/- deeded acres. Rather than having one obvious hunting location, the terrain provides numerous potential setups throughout the property. A trail network is already established through portions of the land, providing access for hunting, hiking, horseback riding, habitat work, and general property maintenance. There are plenty of locations where a future owner could consider adding food plots, blinds, tree stands, water holes, or additional trails to customize the property around their recreational and land-management goals. The habitat is equally diverse. Part of the property was historically tillable ground before being enrolled in a tree-planting CRP program. That CRP contract has expired, and according to the seller, the property is no longer enrolled in CRP or another conservation program. Those former open acres now provide established tree cover, including numerous standing pines that add screening and thermal cover throughout portions of the property. Combined with the existing timber, ridges, draws, and openings, there is a good mix of habitat across the acreage. Deer and turkey are a major part of the recreational appeal. The rolling topography creates pinch points, travel corridors, ridge systems, and natural terrain features that can be incorporated into a hunting strategy. With multiple potential food plot locations and numerous options for stand and blind placement, a future owner can continue developing the property to fit the way they like to hunt. Approximately 230+ acres of landlocked state land adjoin the southwest side of the property, adding another interesting component to an already secluded setting. The surrounding undeveloped acreage helps give this tract the feeling of being part of a considerably larger block of recreational land. Buyers should independently verify state land boundaries, access, and applicable Minnesota DNR rules and regulations. Another important feature is that the property is buildable, you enter the property in the Northwest corner through a gated entrance. The previous owners had a mobile home and buildings on the property. The seller cleaned up the old site, and there is still a water well in that location. It would make a great location to build your dream home or cabin. It is easy to picture starting a fall morning with coffee at the property before heading down a trail to a deer stand, or spending a summer afternoon hiking or horseback riding through the hills. The dead-end gravel road location is an important part of the experience. There is no need to drive through the property to reach somewhere else, and the setting feels removed while remaining within reach of Rochester, Lanesboro, Chatfield, St. Charles, and Winona. Lanesboro and the Root River corridor provide additional opportunities for biking, fishing, paddling, dining, and exploring one of southeast Minnesota's best-known recreational areas. For someone looking for a sizable tract of buildable recreational land in Fillmore County, there is a lot here to work with. The combination of 130+/- acres, end-of-road seclusion, rolling Driftless Region terrain, established trails, timber, pines, multiple ridges and draws, potential habitat improvement locations, and adjoining landlocked state land
