About this home

Charming and picturesque 5+ acre hobby farm conveniently located near LaSalle, just north of St. James and west of Madelia, and lovingly maintained by the same owners for over 40 years. The main floor features an updated kitchen with newer stainless-steel appliances, a welcoming entry from the wraparound composite deck, a full bath with tub/shower, formal dining room, spacious living room, and a bright cherry sunroom. Upstairs offers three generously sized bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, along with a second full bath. The basement provides ample storage and laundry space, with an extra refrigerator and freezer that can stay. An attached three-stall garage is connected by a breezeway for added convenience. The property includes a large barn with a versatile main level for storage and a hayloft converted into a fun recreational space with a pool table area and basketball hoops, plus an additional machine shed for equipment or extra storage. Numerous improvements over the years include permanent siding, replacement windows, furnace and central air, updated 200-amp electrical service, and a composite deck—making this an ideal property for hobby farming or peaceful country living.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
