Farmstead Retreat with woods, pond, trails and easy access to local attractions

This is a 100+ year old farm home with full interior/exterior renovation to its original footprint and function. Renovation was completed in spring 2021. This setting is perfect for quiet, relaxing time away for individuals, couples or families. Intentional design and style choices honor a traditional older farm house and life experience including: a restored clawfoot tub (no shower), gas stove and cast iron cookware (no microwave), restored farm house sink (no dishwasher). The house IS wifi enabled.

The land is a mix of open spaces and wooded acreage adjacent to working farm land. The farm incorporates sustainable agriculture and farming methods with an emphasis on soil regeneration, water conservation and free range grazing and meat production.

A large fire pit area is great for outdoor open fire cooking, s'mores and late night stargazing. Ashland is a 10 minute drive from Chequamegon Bay trails, beach and park access and easy access to Bayfield and other attractions without the tourist congestion! Bayfield ferry to Madeline Island (40 min.), Big Top Chautauqua (35 min.), dozens of parks, water falls, hiking, biking, kayaking, cross country skiing (easy day trip to down hill skiing) and snowshoeing in nearby National Forest land.

The house is cozy and convenient, designed for cooking, conversation, reading and relaxing after days spent in outdoor adventure. Three bedrooms (master on the main floor, two upstairs, smallest bedroom has trundle beds). Bath tub and toilet facilities are separated for ease of use.
