11168 Pokegama Lake Road

A Riverfront Legacy Waiting for Its Next Chapter Some properties simply have a feeling-and this is one of them. Tucked away on more than 24 acres of woods and wetlands along the Snake River in Pine City, this one-owner property offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special. Peaceful, private and surrounded by nature, it feels a world away while being only approximately one hour from St. Paul. Water is at the heart of this property. With access to Pokegama Lake, days here can begin on the water and end watching the sun settle over the river. One of the most unique features is the pole barn located on the river side of the property, complete with an overhead door opening toward the water. Imagine pulling your boat directly into the pole barn-an uncommon convenience and a feature that makes this property unlike any other. Inside, the home embraces its natural surroundings. A spectacular two-story wall of windows on the lakeside floods the main living spaces with light and brings the beauty of the river and changing seasons right into the home. The vaulted ceiling and knotty pine finish create a warm, timeless Northwoods character-the kind of space that feels made for gathering with family and friends. The open main floor offers room to live, entertain and simply enjoy the setting. The spacious kitchen features a center island, eat-up counter, pantry and main floor laundry. A family room and office both overlook the river, providing peaceful spaces to work, relax or watch wildlife and the seasons unfold. Upstairs, the primary bedroom continues the retreat-like atmosphere with a vaulted knotty pine ceiling and beautiful views. An attached nanny's quarters or mother-in-law unit adds flexibility for extended family, guests or those looking for a little additional privacy under one roof. And then there is the space. A three-car attached garage, one-car tuck-under garage and the riverfront pole barn provide an abundance of room for vehicles, boats, toys, equipment and all the things that come with enjoying life on the water. This home is not about perfection-it is about potential. It needs updating throughout, but beneath it all is something that cannot be recreated: a spectacular piece of land, a private riverfront setting, water access, mature woods, wetlands, incredible views and a home with the bones and character to become something extraordinary. For the buyer willing to put in the work, this could be more than a house. It could be a place where generations gather, where boats head out onto the water, where coffee is enjoyed while watching the river, where summer evenings stretch late and winter mornings are quiet and still. A special property. A remarkable setting. And a chance to create your own riverfront retreat for years to come.
