If you’ve been dreaming about building a home where mornings are quiet and your backyard feels wide open, 552 Leonard St in Hawley might be exactly what you’ve been waiting for. Tucked into a peaceful cul-de-sac, this pie-shaped lot offers something that’s getting harder to find—privacy and space. There are no backyard neighbors, just a wide-open field where deer and turkeys occasionally wander by. It’s easy to imagine sipping your morning coffee on the back deck, watching the sunrise with nothing but nature behind you. The lot has a gentle slope, making it ideal for a walk-out basement and giving you flexibility to design a home that truly fits your lifestyle—whether that’s a cozy family home, a modern rambler, or a custom retreat with extra living space below. Hawley continues to grow while still holding onto its small-town charm, and it’s conveniently located just 20 minutes from Fargo. Even better, the city offers hard-to-beat new construction incentives, including a 2-year property tax abatement, a $500 city utility credit, and boulevard trees provided by the city. With special assessments under $18, 000, this lot is not only beautiful—it’s a smart place to build. Lots like this don’t come along often. If you’ve been waiting for the right setting to bring your dream home to life, this is one you’ll want to walk in person.
