In the Blue Mounds Driftless Area of Black Earth, Wisconsin, a $4,500,000 property offers ranch-worthy acreage, a grand 5-bedroom home, a custom horse barn, and a slew of standout amenities.
Among them: a private airstrip and helicopter pad, so the future owners won’t have to spend any time in traffic trying to get here.
The property is listed with Shelly Sprinkman of Sprinkman Real Estate — but not for long. The listing is already marked as “Contingent” on Zillow.com, which means Shelly may have already secured a buyer in the short time the house has spent on the market (it was listed merely a month ago).
So let’s take a quick look at this sprawling Wisconsin property — before a buyer takes it off the market.

A 234-acre spread anchored by a 5-bedroom main house
Summing up the merits of the Blue Mounds property, listing agent Shelly Sprinkman with Sprinkman Real Estate tells us that “This beautifully updated home sits on an expansive 234 acres, offering a unique combination of amenities rarely found in one place.
“With its own airstrip, helicopter pad, private pond, and a custom barn featuring five horse stalls, this property is truly one-of-a-kind. It’s not just a home; it’s a lifestyle.”
The main house has over 5,000 square feet
At the center of it all stands a two-story home with 5,180 square feet of living space, 4 bedrooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a primary ensuite with vaulted ceilings.
The interiors have been extensively renovated
Originally built in 1993, the Wisconsin house has been extensively renovated at the hands of Associated Housewrights, a Madison-based residential design-build firm specializing in remodeling, additions, and new home projects for south-central Wisconsin clientele.
And feature an open floorplan and gourmet kitchen
Inside, we find bright, light-filled interiors thanks to the open floor plan with soaring wood-planked ceilings. Highlights include a captivating grand staircase, and a gourmet kitchen with premium Sub-Zero + Wolf appliances.
There’s a barn with 5 horse stalls
Also on the grounds of the property, we find a masterfully constructed barn featuring 5 horse stalls and panoramic views.

An equestrian lover’s dream
“The custom barn, designed with five horse stalls, adds to the property’s unique appeal, making it perfect for equestrian enthusiasts or those looking for unparalleled space and luxury,” Sprinkman says.
A collection of outdoor amenities
Outside amenities include a spacious deck, a sweeping paver patio, covered seating areas with al-fresco dining, and a large pond visible from inside the house (and from most of the seating areas). The generous acreage also allows for many more amenities to be added.
Including an airstrip & helicopter pad
The highlight of the property’s amenity roster caters to the ultra-rich: the Wisconsin house has an airstrip and helicopter pad, ensuring future owners won’t have to spend time in traffic when heading to their 234-acre Wisconsin compound.
“Nothing else like it” on the market
As the listing agent rightfully points out, “This property represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in this area. There is nothing else like it currently on the market. With the combination of a beautifully updated home, extensive land, and extraordinary amenities, it’s an exceptional value at $4.5 million.”
But interested parties should act quickly, Shelly shares: “Given the current market conditions, this property is a rare gem that is unlikely to be available for long.”
Window of opportunity closing fast
As previously mentioned, the house is already under contract, a little over a month after listing for sale, an unusually short amount of time for million-dollar listings, which typically take far longer to secure a buyer. This means Shelly was proven right when she said that it likely won’t be available for long.
Nevertheless, potential buyers should still reach out to her — just in case the deal falls through.
