Bring your plans and build your dream home on this attractive approximately 5-acre building site. The property features a great mix of mature trees, including pear trees, with a cleared area in the middle that offers an ideal setting for new construction. An existing well is already on site. Approximately 5 acres will be surveyed and split from the current parcel, giving the buyer flexibility to help choose the property lines and amount of land that best fits their needs. Pricing will be based on the final acreage selected. Photos show estimated examples of possible future property lines. Recent county rule changes also provide additional possibilities for the property. A buyer could build a single home or potentially divide the property to create additional building sites for multiple homes, subject to county requirements and approvals. Another major advantage is the soil. The property consists largely of sand and gravel, providing favorable conditions for the possibility of a conventional underground septic system rather than a mound system, subject to soil testing and septic approval. Enjoy privacy and country living with the nearest home approximately one mile away, while still being conveniently located: 11 miles from Albert Lea, 17 miles from Austin, 60 miles from Rochester, 75 miles from the south side of the Twin Cities metro. Whether you’re looking for a private homesite or an opportunity to divide the property into multiple building sites, this parcel offers excellent flexibility. A buyer may be able to split off additional lots for other homes, creating an opportunity to help recoup some of the original land purchase cost.
