Feast your eyes on this one in a million 238 acre slice of heaven! This extraordinary estate with iconic views everywhere you look is tucked away in the rolling hills and ponds just outside of Gackle, North Dakota, located half mile from a paved road and near fishing lakes. The current owners have raised livestock, there are two Ritchie waterers and a cattle pen made of freestanding windbreak and panels, with two shelters. Crops, CRP signup possibilities, gardens, established flowerbeds and a raised produce bed just outside the kitchen door, and for the last 10 years the property has been chemical free. The grounds have been used for hunting as there is wildlife and birds on the ponds, you never know what you will see next and pheasants and guinea hens have been raised on the property. Great hiking and kayaking on the ponds. The owners were working towards self-sustained living off the grid including a greenhouse, and a 30,000 watt generator that turns itself on to run the farmstead when the power goes out. Well water is used and there is rural water dug in two locations as a backup water supply. The expansive grounds were in the process of being developed for tourism income producing rental units with a reproduction of a Homestead House in a wooden granary where Guests could experience daily life on a homestead. There is a smaller granary rental for a Summer Kitchen Homestead experience that is nestled near the gardens which have produced organic produce for the family including apples, pears, cherries, grapes, aronia berries, and much more. There is a second impressive Intercept shop (Man Cave) newly built on the property that holds a motorcoach and cars and includes a one bedroom loft apartment and bathroom that can also be an online rental property. It has the capability for hot water floor heat but not hooked up. A 50 x 70 foot wide insulated, partially heated Quonset provides great farm equipment storage and mechanic space. 5 grain bins can be rented for additional income and a sixth one was modified and used for wood storage. I know what you're thinking, it can't possibly get any better, but we've saved the best for last! A newly updated 1926 3-bedroom 2-bathroom home with a detached two stall garage.
