Description

Imagine having your own private lake – a lake with an exceptional fishery containing largemouth bass, northern pike, bluegill and black crappie.  Now imagine that the shorelines are completely undeveloped and that you own all the lake frontage.  Let’s add in some marshy bays that are excellent waterfowl habitat and make it a major stopover for migrating flocks of wood ducks, mallards, Canada geese and divers.  Now let’s set the lake into a 49-acre parcel of rolling hills that are forested with northern red oak, white oak, aspen, red maple, burr oak and majestic old-growth white pines.  Imagine that these forests are your own private preserve for hunting trophy whitetails and turkeys – even grouse and woodcock.  Now imagine that this little slice of paradise is your own private campground with a gravel pad, boat launch electric service and privy.  Then let’s add a custom floating dock, pontoon boat and a 26-foot 2019 Alpha Wolf Camper for you to enjoy while you are there!

Sound to good to be true?  Well, a property fitting this exact description has just hit the market.  Even more unbelievable is the fact that it is located only 10 minutes from the popular tourist town of Wautoma, Wisconsin, which offers a variety of dining and shopping options, plus several marinas and golf courses.  Wautoma is only an hour and a half drive from Madison, an hour and half from Green Bay, 2 hours and 15 minutes from Milwaukee and 3 hours and 20 minutes from Chicago.  This 49-acre, undeveloped parcel, with its 15-acre, 17-foot-deep aerated lake is located in the Town of Deerfield, in the game-rich hills of western Waushara County.  It is only minutes from thousands of acres of public hunting land, dozens of other lakes, miles of snowmobile trails and numerous trout streams.

This property is divided into eleven lots.  It was originally slated to be a real estate development, but a conservation-minded biologist purchased all of the lakefront lots 11+ years ago, and has since worked tirelessly to improve habitat for deer and waterfowl, and to create a truly amazing fishing experience.  An undeveloped fishing lake in this part of Wisconsin is a very rare gem.  In order to preserve the natural richness and ecology of this unique lake, the seller has deed-restricted the property to limit development.  The buyer may build on any of the lakefront lots, but only one of the lots.  The remaining lots must remain undeveloped.

The property is currently free from any government programs, but should eligible for enrollment in several forestry and/or conservation programs to offset costs or reduce taxes, should the buyer choose to do so.  The property is prices to sell at $525,000.  Believe us, this rare opportunity won’t last long in today’s market!   Call today to schedule a showing.
