Bearwood

Bearwood is a rare offering in southeast Minnesota: a fully restored 1917 event barn, an adjoining residence, and forty-two acres of wooded hills bordering Oxbow Park, all less than ten minutes from downtown Rochester and Mayo Clinic.

The barn was rebuilt in 2019 through an eighteen-month construction and permitting process that brought it to modern standards while preserving its century-old character. Original brick was cleaned and tuck-pointed. Beams were pressure-washed, stained, and wrapped in reclaimed wood sourced on the property. Exposed timber, chandeliers, and tall windows open onto patios with sweeping countryside views.

THE EVENT BARN CAMPUS — $1,350,000 | ±5.51 acres

Approximately 7,400 square feet of climate-controlled event space with capacity for 406 guests, or 300 for a seated dinner. Radiant heat and five mini-split cooling systems allow year-round use. ADA-compliant accessibility includes a lift system. Professional sound, projection and customizable lighting are installed throughout, alongside a finished bridal suite and a permanent outdoor ceremony area seating 44. The campus also includes an approximately 1,300 square foot, two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home and a 2,000+ square foot storage barn, and carries a permanent Conditional Use Permit for event use.

THE ADJOINING ESTATE — $995,000 | 36.58 acres

A single-level ranch home built in 2016 offers 1,267 finished square feet with two bedrooms and two and a half baths, plus an unfinished basement with room for two additional bedrooms, a bath and flex space. A 2,016 square foot pole barn was added in 2020. Of the 36.58 acres, 13.29 are tillable, with the balance in woods and a former building site. The parcel adjoins Oxbow Park and Zollman Zoo, near the Zumbro River.

ONE PROPERTY, MANY FUTURES

Bearwood can continue as a working event venue, or become something else entirely: a private estate, a retreat, a family compound. Purchased together, the two parcels create a contiguous holding of more than forty acres with rare flexibility.
