About this House

Exceptional acreage offering a truly rare combination of water, wildlife, and unmatched Black Hills beauty. This remarkable acreage features multiple ponds nestled among mature aspens and pines, dramatic rock outcroppings, and is backed by USFS land for endless privacy and recreation. The spring-fed dam sits at the headwaters of Beaver Creek and is reported by the sellers to stay full year-round—perfect for floating on warm summer days, fishing and enjoying abundant wildlife including waterfowl, turtles, frogs, and annual ducklings. Fiber optics run to the lot, and major improvements are already in place, including a private well producing an impressive 32 GPM, a 400 amp, 3 wire single-phase electric meter box, 50-amp RV pedestal, and nearby hydrant. Covenants allow for vacation rentals, camping, and additional structures, making this an ideal setting for an executive or dream home with exceptional flexibility. Wildflowers blanket the property seasonally and sellers just love the dam. Purchased prior to surrounding development, the sellers were able to hand-pick the boundaries of this premier location. Properties of this caliber—especially those backed by USFS land—are extraordinarily rare. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of the finest acreages in the southern Black Hills. Stunning in every season, the property truly glows in the fall when the aspens blaze with color.
