Wisconsin Home Listed for $147,000 Offers 4 Bedrooms, Nearly an Acre of Land and a Detached-Style Rural Setting

A four-bedroom home in the Village of Cataract, near Sparta, Wisconsin, is on the market for $147,000, offering buyers a chance to own a property with nearly an acre of land and several important updates. Located at 5840 State Highway 27, the single-story home was built in 1952 and offers approximately 1,250 square feet of living space.

The property features four bedrooms and one full bathroom, providing flexibility for households that need multiple sleeping areas, a home office, or additional space for guests. Inside, the layout includes a living room, kitchen with a dining area, and a lower-level family room. The basement also accommodates the laundry and utility areas.

Several updates may be appealing to prospective buyers. According to the listing, many of the home’s windows were replaced in 2025, while the roof is described as newer. The furnace and exterior siding were installed in 2014. The home also includes a refrigerator, range, washer, and dryer.

Outside, the property sits on approximately 0.91 acres, or nearly 40,000 square feet, offering considerably more outdoor space than a typical small residential lot. A storage shed provides additional room for tools and equipment, while the attached one-car garage offers covered parking and extra convenience. The expansive yard could appeal to buyers who value outdoor space, gardening, recreation, or simply having room to spread out.

The home uses propane heating and has central air conditioning. Water is supplied by a private well, and the property has a private septic system. These systems are important considerations for buyers to inspect and evaluate as part of the purchasing process.

The location in Cataract offers a quieter village setting while remaining approximately 10 minutes from Sparta, according to the listing. Buyers can explore the balance between a more spacious property and access to services and amenities in the nearby community.

The property is currently advertised at $147,000. Its combination of four bedrooms, a large lot, a garage, a storage shed, and updates to several major components could make it worth considering for buyers seeking a home with outdoor space and opportunities to personalize the interior.

The listing reports annual property taxes of $1,105 for 2025. Buyers should confirm the current asking price, property condition, taxes, and details of the roof and mechanical updates with the listing agent before making an offer.
