Property Description for 71598 State Highway 56 Hayfield MN 55940 - MLS# 7133463
Country living with real working space—on blacktop, just north of Hayfield. This 10.74-acre farmstead gives you a 4-bedroom, 2-bath home, a classic barn, machine sheds, shop space, and grain storage, all in one parcel with paved State Highway 56 frontage. The 1884 two-story home has been lived in and updated over time: upper-level windows and shake siding, newer roof, furnace work, main-level bath refresh, carpet and laminate in key rooms, and a dishwasher. Main floor living includes kitchen, dining, living room, and a large family room with masonry fireplace that opens toward the four-season sunroom and bar—wall of windows looking over the backyard. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a full bath. Attached 2-car garage. Private well (tested June 2025; sample met EPA primary drinking-water standards for the analytes tested). New Type III mound septic installed 2024 with Dodge County Certificate of Compliance and operating permit. Step outside to the fenced backyard living area: concrete patio, pergola, stone fire ring, established plantings, and room to gather. Electric is run to the pergola. The pool was removed; the outdoor rooms are already built. Outbuildings are the second half of the story: historic dairy barn with additions, long open-sided shed, 44x80 shed, pole shed, shop, and a cluster of grain bins. Use them for equipment, hobby livestock, storage, or a shop-based business—buyer to verify intended use with the township. Survey is complete. Hog-shed foundation was removed. Ten trees were taken down to open the site. Some patio photos are virtually staged—cushions and a fire in the existing fire ring were added for illustration only and are not included. Unaltered originals of those areas are in the listing.
