What Makes This Property Special

Tall Birch and Mixed Hardwoods

Heavy tree coverage across the full ten acres. Tall birch stands mixed with hardwoods, an open forest floor, and the kind of wildlife activity that makes a parcel worth walking before you buy it. This is quiet country in the Town of Oulu, well off the main road but not hard to reach.

Wetland Determination Already Completed

The wetland determination is done and upland building sites are available. That is a real head start. On a wooded parcel this size, the determination is often the first thing a buyer has to pay for and wait on before they can plan anything. Here it is behind you, and you know where you can build.

Electricity Across the Street, Fiber Available

Power is at the road through Bayfield Electric Co-Op and fiber optic internet is available. You can put up a seasonal cabin or a year-round home without waiting on a utility extension, and you can actually work from it once you are there.

Level, Paved Township Road Frontage

330 x 1320 feet of level, high ground with frontage on a paved township road that the town maintains year-round. Getting in and out is not a project. Directions are simple: US Highway 2 from Iron River, right on Snaizder Rd by the Oulu Rock, which turns into Oulu Rock Rd. Look for the sign on the property.

Property Highlights

10 +/- Acres, Zoned F-1 Forestry

Ten approximate acres of Bayfield County land being split from Tax ID 39348 by the seller. Zoned F-1 Forestry. Final acreage subject to survey. The southern boundary is flagged from an adjacent previous survey, so you can see roughly where you stand when you walk it.

Hunting Land, Cabin Site, or Long-Term Hold

Heavy timber and abundant wildlife make this a natural fit for hunting and recreation. Upland building sites and utilities at the road make it just as workable as a cabin or home site. With fiber available and power across the street, it also holds up as a long-term land investment in a county where wooded acreage keeps getting harder to find.

Flexible Terms Including Contract for Deed

The seller will consider cash, conventional financing, or contract for deed. Contract for deed can be a practical path on vacant land, where traditional lending is often tighter than it is on improved property. Possession at close of escrow.

Before You Build: What to Check

Vacant land comes with a short list of homework that improved property doesn't. On a rural parcel like this one, a new home or cabin with plumbing will need a private septic system, which starts with a soil evaluation by a certified soil tester. Structures also need a land use permit through Bayfield County Planning & Zoning, and a new driveway typically needs sign-off from the township.

This parcel already clears two of the usual hurdles: the wetland determination is done, and power is at the road. Rick can walk you through the rest, including who to call locally and what each step typically costs, before you make an offer.

Minutes from Brule and Iron River
