About 5053 Northbrook Boulevard N
If you've been searching for the perfect property where the shop is the destination and the home is a solid bonus, you've found it. Calling all mechanics, car enthusiasts, contractors, entrepreneurs, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts—this is a rare opportunity to own a private 2.6-acre property designed for the way you live, work, and play. Backing to approximately 198 acres of state-owned land, you'll enjoy exceptional privacy along with direct access to hunting, hiking, and outdoor recreation right out your back door. The incredible 45x32 finished shop (added in 2022) is truly the centerpiece of this property. It accommodates approximately four additional vehicles and is equipped with heat, water, electricity, floor drains, LED lighting, a durable metal roof, and a 12-foot lean-to that's ideal for a motorhome, enclosed trailer, camper, or additional equipment. The oversized concrete apron provides easy access and plenty of room for trucks, trailers, and even semi turnaround. Buyers interested in operating a home-based business may wish to explore obtaining a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) with the local jurisdiction, depending on their intended use. When it's time to relax, this property continues to impress. Gather family and friends around the impressive brick fireplace, entertain at the custom outdoor bar complete with electricity, lighting, ceiling fan, flagstone flooring, and plumbing already in place for future use, unwind in the outdoor sauna, or simply enjoy the beautifully irrigated yard and garden while taking in the peaceful setting and abundant wildlife. The home offers comfortable living with many important updates already completed and the opportunity to continue making it your own over time. Inside you'll find a warm, functional layout featuring hardwood floors, a sunken living room with a wood-burning fireplace, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, tile backsplash, and a dining area that opens to a wraparound deck overlooking the private backyard. The main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet, walk-out access to the deck, and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath completed in 2026 with custom tile flooring and a tiled walk-in shower. All three bathrooms have been updated, including heated tile flooring in the lower-level bathroom. The finished walkout lower level features an additional bedroom with an egress window, a three-quarter bath, a spacious family room with a gas fireplace, dedicated office space, and flexible areas for hobbies, guests, or working from home. Additional improvements include metal roofing on the home and detached garage (approximately seven years old), a new furnace and central air (2025), water heater (2022), fresh exterior paint (Fall 2025), updated fireplace components for added safety, and architectural drawings and renderings that will transfer with the property. Properties like this rarely come along. Whether you're looking for room to run your business, restore classic cars, store your recreational vehicles, enjoy the outdoors, or simply have space to spread out, this property offers possibilities that are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
