Facts & features
Why you’ll love it
Minnesota River Buildable Site! Located just one-half mile south of Franklin in the scenic Minnesota River Bluffs sits this 11.16+/- acre property. The property features easy access, a newly graveled entrance driveway, a well, and a cleared area for a future build site. The property is located on County Road 51, a county-maintained gravel road. However, it is only about 250 yards west of County Road 5, the paved road that runs south out of Franklin. When you arrive at the property, you will notice the newly graveled entrance that leads up to the potential build site. The build site is where you will find the well and a clearing within the woods. The site is completely surrounded by trees. Its setting, tucked back off the road among the trees, makes the property feel very private and secluded, even though it is just a short drive from town. The land consists of steep bluffs and is entirely wooded. The timber includes oaks, maples, cedars, cottonwoods, birch, and many other species. The diversity of the tree canopy enhances both the property's beauty and its views. Openings within the canopy provide impressive views looking south across the Minnesota River Valley. Existing trails throughout the property provide convenient access from one end of the tract to the other. Because this property is located in the Minnesota River Bluffs, it serves as an excellent travel corridor for whitetail deer and wild turkeys. Wildlife viewing opportunities are abundant, and hunting potential is an added benefit of ownership. Just a short walk down the road is the Franklin City Campground and Boat Landing. This public access area provides quick and convenient access to fishing, boating, and other recreational activities on the Minnesota River.
