Gated 37-acre Estate Offers Private Haven For Nature Lovers

Sept. 28, 2026

This Executive Home is sponsored by The Tony Ratchford Group.

A nature lover’s dream awaits on the north edge of Sioux Falls, where privacy, self-sufficiency and luxury living come together on 37 fully fenced acres.

Located at 8800 N. Kiwanis Ave., this five-bedroom, eight-bath home offers 10,200 square feet of living space overlooking the Big Sioux River valley.

“This is a property for someone who wants room to breathe without giving up comfort, security or access to the city,” listing agent Tony Ratchford said. “It delivers a rare combination of privacy, views and modern amenities.”

Reached by paved roads and secured by a gated entrance, the estate rests high above the surrounding landscape with panoramic views and a setting designed for those who want more than a traditional luxury home.

The acreage includes wooded areas, a pond and open land suited for trail riding, hobby farming, hunting or simply enjoying the outdoors in seclusion.

“This is not just an acreage,” Ratchford said. “It is a complete private retreat with the infrastructure to support a wide range of lifestyles.”

The main home is a stunning walkout story-and-a-half where no detail has been overlooked.

It offers five en suite bedrooms, eight bathrooms, multiple gathering spaces and high-end finishes throughout.

Designed for both everyday comfort and large-scale entertaining, the home includes an office, piano or study area, family room, craft room, exercise room, game area with a wet bar, and a theater room with a sound system and snack counter.

A man cave with an underground shooting range adds another distinctive feature to a property already filled with amenities rarely found together.

The outdoor living areas further elevate the estate experience, with an outdoor kitchen, pool, sitting areas and firepit creating a resort-style environment surrounded by open views.

A covered and electric-screened deck with a gas fireplace allows you to enjoy the setting through multiple seasons.

“This home was created for people who value independence, recreation and privacy as much as luxury,” Ratchford said. “You can entertain, relax, work, host guests and enjoy the land without ever feeling limited.”

The property also delivers exceptional support spaces, beginning with a heated, four-plus-stall garage attached to the main home and an adjacent 24-by-26-foot modern workshop.

A 60-by-120-foot insulated Morton Building with dual lofts expands the possibilities even further, offering substantial room for equipment, vehicles, hobbies, storage or business needs.

Attached to the Morton Building is a spacious 1,920-square-foot living quarters with two bedrooms, a full bath, laundry and kitchen/living area with a fireplace — ideal for guests, extended family, staff or independent living.

“The secondary living quarters makes this property extraordinarily versatile,” Ratchford said. “It can support multigenerational living, long-term guests or a caretaker, while preserving the privacy and quality of the main home.”

High-end mechanicals and abundant self-sufficiency features support the estate’s comfort, security and long-term functionality.

Located on the north edge of Sioux Falls, the property offers the freedom and serenity of a private retreat while remaining close to city conveniences.

“This is one of the most complete estates available in the region,” Ratchford said. “For the buyer who wants land, views, security, amenities and true flexibility, it stands in a class of its own.”

This home is listed for $5,685,000. For information, contact The Ratchford Group at 605-359-4100 or info@tonyratchford.com.
