Property Description
Exceptional opportunity to acquire 58 +/- acres positioned at the gateway to future growth in the Sartell area. Located in Le Sauk Township and directly bordering the City of Sartell, this property is currently zoned Urban Service District (U-1), a designation identifying logical expansion areas for future city growth and utility services, making it an outstanding long-term development and investment opportunity.
According to the City of Sartell's Future Land Use Plan, the eastern 40 +/- acres along Pine Cone Road North are designated for Low Density Residential (LDR) development, while the western 18 +/- acres adjoining Bakers Lake are designated for Very Low Density Residential use. Upon subdivision or platting that results in parcels smaller than 40 acres, the property will be annexed into the City of Sartell, at which time a deferred assessment of approximately $118,000 will become due.
Adding to the property's investment appeal, the City of Sartell has informed the owners that approximately $179,000 in compensation is anticipated for the future road and roundabout improvements along the southern boundary of the property. The project is tentatively planned for 2027, though timelines remain subject to change.
The location is second to none, situated just 1 mile south of Sartell High School, 1 mile north of Sartell Middle School, and slightly more than a half mile north of Pine Ridge Golf Course, with numerous additional amenities, shopping, dining, and recreational opportunities nearby.
Beyond its development potential, the property offers outstanding recreational value. The western 18 +/- acres adjoining Bakers Lake provide exceptional wildlife habitat and hunting opportunities, including deer, turkey, and waterfowl, as well as fishing access. The land features a diverse mix of productive tillable acreage, mature wooded areas, and lowland habitat, creating both scenic beauty and excellent wildlife diversity.
The existing farmstead includes a farmhouse being sold as-is, a two-stall detached garage, a 34'x60' open storage shed, and a few additional outbuildings.
Whether you're a developer, investor, land speculator, or outdoor enthusiast seeking a property with significant upside potential, this rare offering combines future growth opportunities, income potential, and recreational appeal in an exceptional Sartell-area location.
