40-Acre Country Estate with Premier Hunting Habitat

$1,200,000
N4227 Christopher Rd, Rio, Wisconsin (Columbia County)

Property Description

This remarkable 40-acre country estate in the Town of Lowville Columbia
County WI offers the rare opportunity to own a beautifully designed home,
premium outbuildings, and highly functional recreational land all in one
turnkey package. Whether your dream is chasing whitetails, building a family
legacy, running your hobbies from home, or simply enjoying the peace that only
country living can offer—this property delivers.

Set at the end of a private quarter-mile blacktop driveway, the
3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Craftsman-style home was built just 8 years ago with
thoughtful upgrades and long-term comfort in mind. Offering 2,634± finished
square feet, the home features an open-concept main level with a spacious
kitchen, large living room, quartzite countertops, stainless appliances, LVP
flooring, mudroom/laundry, and a beautiful primary suite complete with walk-in
shower and double sinks.

The finished lower level is built for entertaining and everyday living
with in-floor heat powered by a separate boiler, two additional bedrooms, a
large rec room, and a full kitchenette/bar area—perfect for hosting hunting
camp weekends, family holidays, or overflow guests.

The home is equipped with a whole-home generator, air exchanger, forced
air Trane furnace with central AC, on-demand hot water heater, constant
pressure well pump, at-grade septic, lawn irrigation, water softener,
spray-foamed box sills, and a low-maintenance metal roof. New gutters and
downspouts with leaf guards round out the exterior improvements.

For those who need serious shop space, the 48×64 fully insulated and
infrared-heated garage is in a class of its own. Featuring two overhead doors,
trench drains, dog wash station, bathroom with urinal and toilet, reinforced
concrete for a future car lift, commercial dehumidifier, and 220 outlet, this
building is ideal for collectors, hobbyists, dog owners, hunters, or anyone who
believes garages should work as hard as they do.

The additional 42×62 Cleary building offers 16-foot ceilings, a 12-foot
overhead door, spray foam insulation, concrete floors, floor drain, and
excellent storage for tractors, equipment, campers, boats, or future expansion.

The land itself is where this property becomes truly special. The open
area could also be home to a cattle or horse pasture. If your searching for a
little hobby farm this one could be easily converted into that.

Approximately 12 acres are currently established in warm season grasses,
switchgrass, and wildflower plantings—creating exceptional bedding cover,
pollinator habitat, and strong wildlife value. Roughly 25 acres of mature woods
provide excellent deer movement, natural travel corridors, and hunting
opportunities. A wildlife pond adds both beauty and functionality, supporting
year-round wildlife activity. Whitetail deer are frequent visitors to the
backyard, and the property offers excellent potential for food plots, expanding
the trail system, stand locations, and long-term habitat management.

This is the kind of place where opening morning starts with coffee in the
mudroom and ends with stories in the heated shop.

Located just 30 minutes from Sun Prairie and Dane County Airport, you get
the peace of rural Columbia County without giving up convenience.

Properties like this rarely come available—where luxury country living,
serious outbuildings, and legitimate hunting ground all meet on one parcel.
