Rare 14.34-Acre Retreat with Shop, Living Quarters & Mississippi River Access – Just 8 Miles from Bemidji Welcome to a one-of-a-kind property offering the perfect blend of privacy, functionality, and outdoor adventure—located just southwest of Bemidji in scenic Beltrami County. Set on 14.34 acres of mostly high ground with mature timber and established alfalfa, this property is a dream for anyone seeking a rural homesite, hobby farm, or year-round recreational base. At the heart of the property sits a well-built and versatile 34x72 steel building, constructed in 2007. Thoughtfully designed, the building features multiple oversized overhead doors—one with a 12-ft electric opener, a 14-ft sliding door, and drive-through 10-ft doors—providing incredible flexibility for equipment, RV, and boat storage. Inside, you'll find a cozy 864sq ft of finished living quarters complete with a bathroom, furnishings, forced air heating, and a wood-burning stove. There’s plenty of room to expand additional living space or bedrooms if desired. The shop portion is fully insulated (with the exception of the ceiling) and ready for year-round use. Modern infrastructure is already in place, including a compliant septic system, drilled well, tankless water heater, 30-amp RV hookup with water and sewer, and even fiber optic internet, security system, and satellite TV service—making extended stays or full-time living easy and comfortable. Outdoor lovers will be especially drawn to the direct access to thousands of acres of adjoining state land, as well as a private trail system that leads directly to the Mississippi River. Canoe or kayak your way through quiet waters all the way into the Bemidji Chain of Lakes. For hunters, the property sits in a wildlife-rich area with excellent opportunities for deer, bear, grouse, turkey, and waterfowl. Two premium elevated blinds are already in place, and the established 8-acre alfalfa field attracts wildlife year-round. Additional amenities include an in-ground irrigation system, a fire pit area, a private, tree-lined driveway, and endless potential for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying the peaceful, natural setting. Whether you’re looking to build your dream home, set up a weekend getaway, or invest in a versatile, well-located rural property, this tract checks all the boxes. All of this is located just minutes from the amenities of Bemidji, yet it feels worlds away in terms of privacy and tranquility
