16250 Saint Croix Trail N This beautiful property is your expansive escape, bringing you the best of both worlds: it's just a short walk on the paved trail to Marine's village center, and it has 12.4 acres of privacy including meadow, grasslands, and woods with mowed hiking trails. The home is a charming 1930 cottage with fantastic views, a stone fireplace, vaulted beamed ceilings, and a spacious Family Room addition. The loft above the garage is a gorgeous 2016 SALA-designed living space with in-floor heat, views from the large picture windows, and a sleek white bathroom with walk-in tiled shower. The wood-paneled garage is insulated and heated. The Village of Marine is a thriving community with a marina, library, folk school, elementary school, coffee shop, General Store, and three restaurants. The Marine area is surrounded by pristine nature with vast parklands and the scenic and protected St Croix River. The list price reflects the updating and basement dampness issues that a buyer may want to address. The two upper BRs in the home are non-conforming.
