House Review: 14365 Sheffield Lane, May Township
/Sheffield Lane is a quiet, feels like private, rustic road that wanders down to a dead end and follows the St. Croix. Not all of the homes are on the river and there are a mix of rustic cabins and new, modern builds. This house isn't a new build but it has been nicely updated and certainly isn't a cabin. I had a client years ago that bought a 3 season cabin just down the street and there have only been a handful of sales on the street since then. Whats really cool about the lot is that it sits on almost 2 acres and most of that is away from the river on pasture with a barn. So, you get the privacy on the river and useful land to play around and feel like you're in the country. The house itself has nice finishes, the main drawback is that there is so much oak wood in the house, with most of the trim and kitchen woodwork and cabinets. It wants to feel contemporary but it's difficult with so much dated oak. It is nestled in the trees and the views of the river are filtered through the branches as you are high above the river on a bluff. The dock is beautiful as you step down to the river and has a very private setting. We'll see if it can fetch $1.1mm.
