SATURDAY OPEN HOUSE, DECEMBER 13, NOON TO 2 P.M. … BEGINS IN …

A sign marks the dead end of a lazy gravel road just outside Milaca, but that’s not quite accurate. See, this is actually where adventure begins.

Ten acres of undulating terrain, hobby-farm amenities and a move-in-ready home set the scene, all immediately along the rippling Rum River. It’s the kind of naturally secluded spot that’s teeming with wildlife by way of its dead-end location, almost like the deer and turkeys read the sign.

Inside the heart of the homestead is a 4-bedroom, 2 bathroom house, which features an elevated deck overlooking the backyard pond and a walkout basement underneath.

An array of pastures, sheds and buildings create the type of rural homestead perfect for small livestock, chickens and a garden. Privacy like this doesn’t shout; it whispers through the trees, delivering that rare equilibrium of accessibility and isolation. Milaca’s small-town amenities are a short drive away, yet the property feels worlds apart.

Whether you’re drawn to the therapeutic pull of riverfront stewardship, the self-sufficiency of a hobby farm, or simply the chance to unplug amid nature’s quiet abundance, this 10 acres hits a sweet spot unlike others.

Make your home where the road ends, but the Rum River flows uninterrupted.
