<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve just found the kind of Southwest Wisconsin country estate that people
\ndream about but rarely get the chance to own\u2014an awe-inspiring 21.78-acre
\nDriftless Region escape tucked into the rolling ridges, spring-fed valleys,
\nhardwood hillsides, and wildlife-rich terrain of Vernon County, just minutes
\nfrom Wildcat Mountain State Park and the legendary Kickapoo Valley Reserve.<\/p>\n
This is more than a country home with acreage. This is a lifestyle property.
\nA private ridge-and-valley sanctuary. A turnkey hunting retreat. A peaceful
\nfull-time residence or weekend getaway where the road quiets down, the stars
\nburn a little brighter, and every morning begins with sweeping views across one
\nof Wisconsin\u2019s most sought-after recreational landscapes.<\/p>\n
A scenic gravel driveway leads you across a spring-fed creek and winds
\ngently up the hillside to a tastefully remodeled raised ranch home, originally
\nbuilt in 1996 and thoughtfully updated throughout. Set against a backdrop of
\ncascading hills, wooded ridges, open pockets, and lush valley cover, the home
\noffers 1,778 square feet of warm, comfortable living space with 2 bedrooms, 2
\nbathrooms, a walk-out basement, and an oversized wrap-around deck designed to
\ncapture the very best of the property\u2019s views.<\/p>\n
Inside, the home feels inviting, functional, and move-in ready. The
\nopen-concept layout creates a natural flow between the kitchen, dining, and
\nliving areas, making it ideal for everyday living, entertaining guests, or
\nunwinding after a long day in the woods. Large windows and patio doors frame
\nthe surrounding hillsides and valley floor, bringing the outdoors into nearly
\nevery major living space. Updated flooring, refreshed paint, modern fixtures,
\nand thoughtful improvements throughout give the home a clean, comfortable feel
\nwithout losing the simplicity and warmth of a true Wisconsin country residence.<\/p>\n
The main living area features a cozy fireplace, direct deck access, and
\nbeautiful natural light, creating the perfect gathering space during every
\nseason. The kitchen offers practical cabinetry, generous counter space, and
\nviews over the surrounding countryside, while the oversized deck becomes an
\nextension of the home itself\u2014a place for morning coffee, evening sunsets,
\ngrilling with family, watching deer filter through the valley, or simply
\nsoaking in the peace that only this part of Wisconsin can deliver.<\/p>\n
The primary suite is generously sized and offers enough room for a private
\nsitting area or home office, making this property especially appealing for
\nthose seeking a remote-work lifestyle without sacrificing access to nature.
\nHigh-speed internet adds modern convenience in a setting that feels wonderfully
\nremoved from the noise of town. The suite also features a walk-in closet and
\nprivate bathroom, while the second bedroom and additional bathroom provide
\ncomfortable accommodations for family, guests, or weekend hunting partners.<\/p>\n
The walk-out lower level adds tremendous flexibility. The basement has been
\nimproved and finished with a rustic, creative touch, offering usable space for
\nhobbies, recreation, storage, studio use, gear organization, or future
\nexpansion. It includes an air exchanger and is already plumbed for an
\nadditional bathroom, creating a strong value-add opportunity for the next
\nowner. Whether you envision a hunting camp headquarters, family recreation
\nroom, workout area, art studio, or additional living space, the foundation is
\nalready in place.<\/p>\n
Outside, the improvements continue with a newly constructed 24\u2019x32\u2019 detached
\ngarage featuring concrete flooring and electric service. This is a major asset
\nfor anyone needing space for vehicles, ATVs, UTVs, hunting equipment, tools,
\ntractors, lawn care gear, or workshop use. The property\u2019s gravel drive,
\nmanicured yard, elevated homesite, and practical building setup make the entire
\nproperty easy to use and enjoy from day one.<\/p>\n
But the real magic of this estate is the land.<\/p>\n
The 21.78 acres offer a remarkable blend of habitat, topography, water,
\ncover, and access. Rolling hills transition into wooded ridges, open pockets,
\nbrushy bedding areas, spring-fed water sources, wild apple trees, established
\nfood plot areas, and mature timber consisting of oak, maple, pine, and mixed
\nhardwoods. This is the kind of property that hunts far bigger than its acreage
\nbecause of the way it lays. The ridges, draws, funnels, saddles, and
\nvalley-bottom cover naturally influence deer movement, creating an exceptional
\nsetup for serious whitetail hunters.<\/p>\n
This is rich deer dirt that hasn\u2019t been hunted in a year.<\/p>\n
The property has a proven history of mature buck activity, supported by
\nextensive trail camera documentation and strategic stand locations already in
\nplace. Surrounding large private tracts, limited hunting pressure, strong
\nneighborhood habitat, and a focus on Quality Deer Management help make this
\narea a consistent producer of trophy-class Vernon County whitetails. The
\ncombination of food, water, bedding cover, security, and terrain diversity
\ngives this property the ingredients every serious land buyer looks for but
\nrarely finds in one compact, manageable tract.<\/p>\n
For the hunter, this is a turnkey setup. Food plots are ready to be sprayed
\nand planted. Access is practical. The terrain creates natural pinch points and
\ntravel corridors. The mix of hardwood ridges, thick cover, creek-bottom
\ninfluence, and open feeding pockets gives you a complete hunting system in a
\nhighly desirable region of Southwest Wisconsin.<\/p>\n
For the outdoor enthusiast, the property is equally impressive. The
\nspring-fed creek adds life, sound, and beauty to the landscape, while the
\nsurrounding hillsides create a private natural amphitheater that feels worlds
\naway from the busyness of everyday life. Whether you enjoy hiking, wildlife
\nphotography, shed hunting, birdwatching, gardening, trail riding, or simply
\nowning a private piece of the Driftless Region, this property delivers a deep
\nsense of place.<\/p>\n
Location only strengthens the offering.<\/p>\n
Situated near Wildcat Mountain State Park, this estate sits in the heart of
\none of Wisconsin\u2019s most scenic and recreationally rich regions. Wildcat
\nMountain State Park offers thousands of acres of public outdoor adventure,
\nincluding hiking, horseback riding, fishing, canoeing, camping, and incredible
\nviews over the Kickapoo River Valley. Nearby, the Kickapoo Valley Reserve spans
\nmore than 8,500 acres and offers over 50 miles of trails, dramatic sandstone
\nformations, river access, wildlife habitat, and year-round recreation that
\ndraws visitors from across the Midwest.<\/p>\n
You are also positioned within reach of multiple local school districts,
\nincluding Hillsboro, La Farge, and Kickapoo, with bus routes conveniently
\navailable at the top of the ridge. That combination of privacy, recreation, and
\neveryday practicality makes this property suitable for a full-time residence,
\nseasonal retreat, family getaway, hunting headquarters, or legacy land holding.<\/p>\n
The property is not enrolled in any government land programs, and commercial
\ntimbering is not permitted, helping preserve the long-term beauty, privacy, and
\nrecreational character of the estate. Annual taxes are approximately $3,465,
\noffering a reasonable carrying cost for a property with this level of home,
\nland, setting, and location.<\/p>\n
This is the kind of place that checks the boxes that truly matter: a
\nwell-kept country home, a functional shop, spring-fed water, mature timber,
\nfood plots, proven deer history, high-speed internet, privacy, views, and
\nproximity to some of the best outdoor recreation in the Driftless Region.<\/p>\n
