6.27-acre Hobby Farm with panoramic views 5 minutes south of Rushford within Houston County, MN

This picturesque hobby farm sits nestled on top of the ridge just south of Rushford with sweeping panoramic views. The farmhouse is surrounded by towering mature trees, apple trees, approximately 2 acres of tillable/pasture, and multiple outbuildings. The house has a finished 1 BR/1 BA main floor with wrap around deck and three season porch. The upstairs is gutted and ready to be remodeled to your liking! Root River, bike trail, trout streams, and thousands of state land acres minutes away. The 26 x 36 garage is insulated, finished, and read for heat. The 44x48 outbuilding is in good shape.

If that was in Texas they would want over double that for it.

That's because it's in a rural area, Rushford and Houston are extremely small towns... area shut down at 9pm. The IGA's only decent grocery store and it's small and expensive. You must drive to La Crosse, WI which is about 45-50 minutes on a 2-lane road if you want Sam's club, Walgreens, Home Depot, Walmart etc. things a lot of Americans are accustomed to having next door, or drive on to Rochchester, MN which 60-65 minutes. You head there maybe twice per month and stock up. People in Houston/Rushford and surrounding small towns live at different speed than rest of USA, you do it yourself, you make your own way, and to learn to accept simple living or you won't make it, you aren't getting rich, most of the wealth is generational, and everyone knows everyone.

@@Chris-Rife Oh YES, the rural lifestyle. I grew up with that in Texas, we do NOT have it anymore, nor do we have AGRICULTURE anymore, we have AGRIBUSINESS instead. So about 5 corporations now control Meat Packing, row crop production, transportation of foodstuffs and so on. This country is ADDICTED to "Growth". I CRINGE now everything I hear the word "Growth". You cannot have infinite growth in a finite place, the Earth is a finite place. Urban growth paves over arable land every day to build suburbs and urban place and to make LAKES to catch water for these people that move in so they can flush their toilets and water their yards because many of these places are in a DESERT like Arizona, California, the Pacific Northwest, a large part of Texas etc etc.
