"Build your dream country estate on 10 acres of pristine, wooded bluff country offering unparalleled privacy, top-tier Zumbrota-Mazeppa schools, and "million-dollar" panoramic sunset views. This exceptional, buildable property perfectly balances secluded wilderness living with modern convenience, sitting just 20 minutes from the world-renowned Mayo Clinic and moments from Highway 52. Located off a quiet, well-maintained paved road with a permanent address already established, utilities are conveniently available right at the road and ready to be brought onto the lot.
**Wabasha County Planning and Zoning has indicated that a buyer wishing to build a home in the wide open northwest corner on the lower-lying land won’t have any problems. If the desire is to build on the bluff for even more majestic views, a full site plan and application for a variance will need to be submitted for review and approval.**
For those looking to establish a hobby farm, homestead, or equestrian estate, the lower level two-acre pasture area provides the perfect canvas for a thriving orchard, vineyard, or livestock grazing. While county zoning preserves your ultimate privacy by restricting the land to a maximum of one single-family dwelling, there are no zoning restrictions regarding agricultural outbuildings as long as setbacks are met. In addition, the lot is highly versatile, and zoning allows for livestock providing flexibility for any agricultural vision (Contact the county for specifics on density).
The land features a naturally sculpted upper bluff crest overlooking the spectacular valley below. Nature enthusiasts will thrive on this unique property, which sits directly adjacent to over 100 acres of protected DNR managed state land. The dense canopy of majestic, mature timber includes high-value red oak and walnut trees, creating a private sanctuary that is a proven whitetail haven with an abundance of wildlife and frequent sightings of mature trophy bucks.
Beyond its tranquil borders, this property offers incredible proximity to premier local recreation and city amenities. Water lovers will appreciate being only minutes from the nearest public boat launch for easy access to Lake Zumbro’s best boating, fishing, and watersports. You are also less than 15 minutes away from Mac's Park Place, a popular local lakefront campground featuring a favorite neighborhood bar and restaurant. Combining the peace of a rural sanctuary, excellent local schools, and a seamless, stress-free commute into downtown Rochester, this rare piece of Minnesota bluff country is ready for your vision. *Please note that the listing agents are related to the seller.*
