14844 129th Avenue, Park Rapids, MN 56470 - MLS# 7112060

Maybe you grew up in the country and have been looking for a way back. A place where there’s room for family gatherings, animals, a garden and a little more independence—without giving up the convenience of being close to town.

This property offers that opportunity.

Bordered on the north by the Strait River, and adjoining approximately 20 acres of landlocked State land to the east, the setting feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life. There’s room here for horses, livestock, gardens, equipment and the kind of outdoor lifestyle that’s difficult to recreate on a typical country lot.

The home was made for gathering. There’s enough space to host Thanksgiving dinner with the extended family, welcome everyone home for the holidays or simply enjoy a house where people can spread out and stay awhile.

For anyone who needs a serious heated shop and storage, this property provides room to work on vehicles, repair equipment, tackle projects and keep the tools and toys out of the weather.

An additional insulated building adds another layer of possibility. Previously used as a country farmers market store, it could become a homeschool classroom, studio, workshop, small business space or the starting point for something entirely new. Pair it with horses or other farm animals and you could even envision an educational space where children can learn about animals, agriculture and country life firsthand.

If you've spent years in town, moved away from the farm, or lived in a city long enough to know you're ready for something quieter, this may feel familiar in all the right ways. Space to work. Space for animals. Space for family. A river along the property, woods beyond it and the freedom to create a lifestyle that feels a little more like coming home.
