About this property

Family friendly ranch retreat only minutes from the heart of Ephraim

This unique ranch retreat boasts 2600 square feet of second floor farm style living space, nestled in 29 acres of private meadow. Visitors enjoy the wonderful breeze in the large 2nd story great room/kitchen area with scenic views of the countryside throughout. Although located only 6 minutes from downtown Ephraim and the beach, this home offers amazing privacy with its' own walking trails, fire pit, large 2nd story deck, and plenty of activities for the kids including a trampoline, tether ball, slide off the second story and a ping pong table in the stable below. The home is also ideal for hosting large gatherings either outdoors, or in the first floor stable area or in the 2nd floor great room.

The master bedroom has a king size bed and faces south with sweeping views of a meadow and a master bath. Across the hallway is a queen size room with an adjoining full bath. The home also has two guest bedrooms both with two twin beds that share a hallway bathroom.

For the 2025 season, we have added a beautiful covered porch on the south side of the building, a bluestone patio with fire pit, and a restroom in the stable area.
