Some properties have a great house. Others have impressive outdoor spaces or the shop everyone wishes they had. This 5+/- acre property near Cannon Falls brings all three together, creating a private country setting built around recreation, entertaining and enjoying time at home.Located on a dead-end road and surrounded by mature timber, the property offers privacy that is noticeable from the moment you arrive. Behind the home, that setting has been transformed into an outdoor entertainment area that gives this property its real wow factor.At the center is an in-ground 20' x 50' swimming pool constructed in fall 2024. The pool features a diving board, basketball hoop, volleyball net, built-in sun deck in the shallow end, swim-out benches in the deep end and a powered cover. Mature timber provides a natural backdrop around the outdoor living area.Overlooking the pool is a 19' x 22' pool house designed for much more than getting out of the sun. The covered entertaining space includes a fireplace, sink, three mini refrigerators, granite countertops, a Memphis wood-fire grill, a Le Griddle stainless flat-top grill and a large storage area.The outdoor setup continues with an 18' x 40' TimberTech deck overlooking the pool and wooded backyard. New deck boards and railing were completed in 2025. Below the deck is an artificial-turf putting green, with additional turf extending east to create a chipping surface. A 7' x 8' Hot Spring Grand hot tub, approximately three years old, provides another outdoor option. A HEOS entertainment system installed within the past two years connects many of the property's gathering spaces, wirelessly serving the pool area, deck and several areas inside the home, including the lower-level entertainment spaces, workout room, game area and dining area.Then there's the 62' x 54' detached shed, a major feature in its own right. Heated and spray-foam insulated throughout, this building goes far beyond equipment storage. A finished man cave and gathering area includes a sink and butcher area, cabinetry, rolling island, sound system and TVs. The building also features a rear walk-in cooler room, built-in hoist and dedicated lawn mower and equipment storage area.The 5+/- acres are surrounded by mature timber, helping create a natural buffer around the home, shop and outdoor living areas. Combined with the dead-end road location, the setting offers a sense of seclusion while remaining convenient to Cannon Falls. The wooded acreage also provides habitat and opportunities for deer and turkey hunting. Built in 2002, the home offers approximately 4,320 finished square feet with five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a three-car attached garage and a finished walkout lower level. Nearly the entire interior, with the exception of the primary bathroom, was refinished in 2024.The main living area features vaulted ceilings, large windows overlooking the backyard and a floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace.

Two gas fireplaces with stone surrounds are found within the home, and the combination of tall ceilings and large windows brings plenty of natural light into the main living spaces.The finished walkout lower level provides another entertainment area.
