Pleasant Dale Farm And Lodge

Whitetail Properties is proud to bring this amazing farm to the market! The lodge is not just a building; it is a masterpiece of design and functionality. Built in 2003, the lodge features 2,288 square feet, including a basement with a garage. The construction of the lodge is a blend of rustic charm and modern engineering. The exterior and interior log walls are built over a concrete core, providing both energy efficiency and unparalleled strength. This means that the lodge remains warm in the winter and cool in the summer, reducing energy costs and ensuring a comfortable living environment year-round. The heated stone floors are not only practical but also add a touch of luxury to the lodge. The lodge also features full-length stone fireplaces at each end, extending to the ceiling vault, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. These fireplaces are perfect for gathering around with family and friends, sharing stories, or simply enjoying the warmth and ambiance. One of the many unique features of the lodge is the railroad boxcar flooring with hand-forged nails. This flooring not only adds a historical element but also showcases the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into building the lodge. The antique functional wood-burning cookstove in the kitchen is another nod to the past, providing a charming and functional cooking experience. The acres surrounding the lodge is an outdoor enthusiast's dream come true. With vast expanses of native prairie grass bordered by timber edges, the land offers a diverse and thriving ecosystem. The thick timbered bottoms, intermixed with cedar thickets, provide an ideal habitat for a multitude of wildlife species.
