Property Description
Own a truly distinctive northern Minnesota property just outside Lengby, Minnesota on 1.33 scenic acres. Rich in character and history, this property features an authentic 1890s Surveyor’s Cabin showcasing rustic original construction and thoughtful craftsmanship throughout.

The property also hosts a spacious 3-bedroom, 1.5 bath shouse (shed/house) offering comfortable living space offering a main floor primary bedroom paired with an oversized garage—ideal for storing "toys" or convert to a great man cave!
