Welcome to a rare gem in the Northern Black Hills, where the beauty of the trees, wide-open spaces, and total freedom come together in perfect harmony. Located just 15 minutes from downtown Spearfish, this one-of-a-kind property offers the coveted blend of country living and convenience, with no HOA—a true rarity in this highly desirable area of South Dakota.

Set on 10.71 private acres, this custom-crafted estate delivers the ultimate rural lifestyle with room for horses, hobbies, guests, and more. Nestled among mature trees and thoughtfully developed over time, the property touches State Game Production Area (GPA) land, providing direct private access to miles of untamed wilderness, and is just minutes from the Black Hills National Forest for even more recreational opportunity.

A Home with Heart and Soul – 3,798 Sq Ft of Custom Living Space

At the heart of the property is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath home boasting 3,798 square feet of finely detailed living space. This isn’t just a house—it’s a work of art. Every inch has been thoughtfully designed, featuring hand-selected natural wood finishes, custom railings, intricate wall textures, and warm design elements that blend rustic charm with functional elegance.

The well-planned layout is ideal for families, multigenerational living, or hosting guests. A spacious recreation area can easily be converted into a fifth bedroom if desired, offering versatility for evolving needs.

Tucked above, a loft/studio space serves as an ideal retreat for creative projects, relaxation, a home gym, or even additional guest quarters. With its own bathroom and kitchenette on the lower level, this flexible space could become a studio apartment or home office—whatever suits your lifestyle.

Throughout the home, in-floor heating keeps everything cozy, even on the chilliest South Dakota days.

A central vacuum system adds a layer of convenience for easy maintenance.

A Living Space That Delivers

The heart of any home is the kitchen, and this one does not disappoint. Featuring granite countertops, black walnut cabinetry, and additional coffee bar and storage, it’s a space built for gathering, cooking, and enjoying. Whether you're whipping up meals for your family or entertaining guests, this kitchen delivers both form and function.

The custom-built Rumford fireplace is a striking feature of the home, a nod to classic craftsmanship and efficient design. This stunning centerpiece is adorned with Sioux quartz rock, locally sourced from South Dakota and carefully selected for its distinctive coloring and texture.

Ideal for Equestrians and Outdoor Enthusiasts

Horse lovers and hobby farmers will appreciate the 50' x 24' horse barn, with stalls, a tack room, and an attached lean-to—perfect for sheltering animals or storing feed and equipment. The property is fully fenced for livestock.

In addition, the 32' x 40' steel machine shop provides space for tractors, recreation vehicles, tools, and equipment. Whether working on projects, maintaining your gear, or needing extra storage, this shop is a significant value-add.

Function Meets Freedom

Beyond the structures, this property is designed for easy, independent living. It features two private wells, a septic system, and no HOA —meaning you can truly live life on your terms. Whether you dream of starting a hobby farm, raising horses, planting gardens, or simply enjoying your space in peace, this property offers the freedom to make it happen.

The oversized 2-stall garage (28' x 36') includes a sink, hot/cold water spigot, and floor drain, making it easy to rinse off vehicles, gear, or pets after a long day exploring the trails.

Natural Beauty All Around

As you enter Higgins Gulch, you are greeted by a peaceful, wooded setting where abundant wildlife and nature thrive. The property includes fruit trees and shrubs, and great open space. Thanks to the land's topography and native trees, you’ll enjoy privacy and an ever-changing backdrop of natural beauty through all four seasons.

The proximity to State GPA land and National Forest ensures your outdoor adventures—whether hunting, hiking, riding, or relaxing—are just steps away from your front door.

Location Perfection – Rural Feel, City Convenience

While the property offers the peace and privacy of true country living, you’re never far from the amenities you need. Downtown Spearfish—with its charming shops, restaurants, and healthcare facilities—is just a 15-minute drive away. The location combines the best of both worlds: a secluded homestead with easy access to town.
