Nestled just off Highway 20 and positioned just east of the Galena Territory and Eagle Ridge Resort entrance, this unique 3-bedroom log home presents an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a harmonious blend of residence, workspace, and land-based utility. Its Special Use Permit allowing Live/Work operations opens the door for home-based businesses, creative studios, consulting practices, or entrepreneurial ventures seeking convenient access to a highly trafficked corridor while enjoying the privacy and tranquility of an expansive natural setting.
The main floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and two full baths, while the lower level expands the usability of the home with additional rooms currently outfitted with closets and windows, which may be convertible to future bedrooms. The lower level also supports a large family room and two dedicated office spaces, allowing for a functional separation between daily living and business activity. This versatility provides a significant advantage for buyers whose personal and professional lives benefit from proximity without overlap.
Complementing the residence is a substantial 64’ x 40’ metal building built in 2012 and outfitted with three overhead doors, a partial basement with accessible entry, a half bath, and laundry hookups. This structure is well-suited for contractors, hobbyists, storage-intensive enterprises, or agricultural use, offering a rare combination of utility and condition. The nearly nine-acre property is beautifully wooded, encouraging outdoor enjoyment, wildlife observation, and rural serenity while also providing ample space for pasture uses such as horses, goats, chickens, and other small livestock.
Recent maintenance, including exterior staining in 2024 and roof and furnace replacement in 2010, enhances the property’s turnkey appeal. Its location just minutes from downtown Galena ensures seamless access to dining, retail, and tourism-driven amenities while preserving the rural character of a countryside retreat. With flexible use potential, modern conveniences, and expansive acreage, this offering stands out as a distinctive opportunity in the region.
