Property Description
Privacy, mature timber, abundant wildlife, and a custom-built executive home come together on this 30.33+/- acre property located less than 10 minutes east of Owatonna. Built between 1997 and 1998, this architecturally designed home sits high on a ridge overlooking Maple Creek, creating a peaceful setting that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. The combination of a secluded homesite, paved road access, and proximity to Owatonna, Rochester, and Mayo Clinic makes this a rare opportunity in Steele County.
Offering approximately 5, 319 finished square feet, the home was thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. As you enter through the grand foyer, you're welcomed by soaring cathedral ceilings and impressive floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the home with natural light while showcasing the surrounding woods and creek valley. Custom built-ins throughout the home add character and craftsmanship, while three fireplaces create inviting spaces to gather with family and friends throughout the year.
The spacious kitchen offers generous cabinetry, quality workspace, and a layout that naturally flows into the dining and living areas, making it well-suited for hosting holiday gatherings, celebrations, or casual weekends with family. The main floor also features a comfortable primary suite and living spaces designed to take advantage of the scenic setting outside.
The walkout lower level was built with entertaining in mind. A sunken family room creates a comfortable place to watch movies or the big game, while the second kitchen and bar area, pool table space, and four-season sunroom provide additional room for guests. Walk outside to the patio where you can unwind after a long day while listening to the sounds of Maple Creek below.
One of the property's most memorable features is the setting. Perched above the creek valley and surrounded by mature trees, the home offers exceptional privacy while remaining just minutes from town. Large windows throughout the home bring the outdoors inside, allowing you to enjoy the changing seasons from nearly every room. Morning coffee overlooking the woods and creek is an easy way to start the day, and evenings often end with wildlife appearing in the yard.
The current owner says one of the things they'll miss most is the incredible amount of wildlife that visits the property. Eagles regularly soar overhead, while ducks and geese use the creek corridor throughout the year. Deer and wild turkeys are frequent visitors, and songbirds provide constant activity around the home, creating a setting that nature lovers will appreciate in every season.
Outside, you'll find a 30' x 60' Morton building complete with concrete floors and electricity, providing outstanding space for equipment, recreational vehicles, workshop projects, or hobby storage. The attached three-car garage offers additional convenience, while the blacktop driveway and paved county road provide easy, year-round access.
The land itself offers a diverse recreational setting. Maple Creek winds through the lower portion of the property, with mature timber and lowland habitat creating excellent cover for wildlife. During the fall, the property sees regular deer movement, while the creek corridor attracts a variety of waterfowl throughout the year. Whether you enjoy hunting, wildlife photography, bird watching, or simply appreciating the outdoors from your own deck, this property offers opportunities that are difficult to duplicate so close to town.
Properties offering over 30 acres, a custom executive home, a large outbuilding, privacy, abundant wildlife, and a location less than 10 minutes from Owatonna and under an hour from Rochester, Mayo Clinic and South Metro seldom become available. If you've been searching for a property where you can entertain, relax, and enjoy the outdoors without sacrificing convenience, this Steele County offering deserves your attention.
