PRICE REDUCED!!!  SELLER STATES TO BRING THEM AN OFFER AND THEY WILL CONSIDER!!!  WOW!  Why settle for your normal lakeshore lot when you have an opportunity to own lakeshore acreage off of a blacktop road like this? Located between Alexandria and Glenwood, this property allows for you to build your dream home on 1650’ of what could arguably be the best contiguous length of shoreline on beautiful Turtle Lake. Never heard of Turtle Lake? You’re probably not alone with the abundance of lakes around the Alexandria/Glenwood area, but don’t be fooled by its size as Turtle Lake can definitely hold its own in the fisheries department. Latest DNR fish sample results proved that Turtle is a true multi-species fishery, but more intriguing was that it had a record high walleye catch rate of 15.7 fish/gillnet with over 37% of those fish exceeding 15 inches. With some natural reproduction occurring, along with the consistent stocking efforts, those numbers continue into the future. In fact, after seeing this information, I just couldn’t resist the temptation to wet a line myself and even with bright mid-day calm conditions (less than ideal) and limited time, I was able to get a couple perfect frying pan sized “Eye’s” and let me tell you, they were wonderful! Turtle also is relatively lightly developed and maintains that quiet peaceful feeling. The lakeshore acreage can also be split off of the rest of the property and developed into individual lakeshore lots for the investment-minded individual. The driveway on the east side of the property is a legally recorded easement so you have immediate access back to the wooded lakeshore. Speaking of wooded lakeshore, it was filled with deer sign and the remnants of past hunting seasons shows that it can provide you with hunting opportunities as well. One can’t forget about the income producing tillable acreage which totals approximately 43 acres. These acres have a newer drain tile system in place and with a crop productivity index touching 90, produces some good yields year after year. The tillable acreage could also be easily converted to pasture for horses, cattle, etc. allowing for the unique opportunity to not only live on a lake but have your own hobby farm as well. This acreage would also be suited for platting for single family residential or even a storage building facility to service the residents of not only Turtle Lake but Lake Reno which is just across the road. So whether you’re looking for that lakeshore acreage to build for yourself, develop into multiple uses, future investment opportunities or a combination of all of these, come check out this rare property!
