Description
Lakefront living begins here—where your days rise with shimmering water and end in the embrace of nature’s hush. With your own private dock, you can launch a kayak at sunrise, cast a line at dusk, or simply sit with your thoughts while the light dances on the water. Every season brings something new: summer swims, autumn reflections, winter stillness, and the promise of spring. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape or a forever kind of calm, this property offers a rare and restorative connection to the lake that soothes the soul and sparks the imagination. Originally reconstructed using materials from the 1939 World’s Fair Swedish Pavilion, the main residence is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch-style cabin set on protected watershed land, with breathtaking lake views from nearly every room. Crafted almost entirely of wood and framed by towering pines, the home features Jefferson and Andersen windows that flood the interior with natural light. At the heart of the home is an open-concept chef’s kitchen, designed for both form and function. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry provide a sleek and modern touch, while the seamless flow into the dining and living areas makes it ideal for entertaining or cozy nights at home. The expansive living room centers around a rustic flagstone fireplace—perfect for fireside conversations, family gatherings, or moments of peaceful solitude. Step outside to a covered porch overlooking the calm, reflective lake—once a flowing river, now a tranquil body of water lined with ancient trees. Whether you're sipping coffee on the lakeside deck, launching a kayak from the private dock, or casting a line into still waters, outdoor living becomes a cherished rhythm of life. Rowboat and two kayaks are included. One of the most exciting features of this offering is the second, buildable 2.51-acre parcel—perfect for adding a guest home, creative studio, or future investment property. Down by the water’s edge sits a charming grandfathered loft cabin, full of potential and ready for renovation, offering even more ways to enjoy this one-of-a-kind lakeside retreat. Scattered across the grounds, you’ll find three useful outbuildings: a utility shed, a wood shed, and a larger structure that could be reimagined as a workshop, bunkhouse, or additional guest space. A deep freshwater well and underground propane tank support modern convenience while maintaining the rustic charm of off-the-grid living. The home is offered fully furnished and move-in ready, currently operating as a successful income-generating Airbnb, making it a turnkey opportunity for both lifestyle and investment. Whether it’s sunrise paddles, evening fires, or stargazing from the porch, this home invites you to slow down and savor each moment. The low-maintenance grounds let nature take center stage, and the surrounding protected land ensures lasting peace and privacy. Lake rights are deeded and fully documented with unrestricted personal use. While commercial operations such as taverns or restaurants aren’t permitted, this property is ideal as a private retreat, legacy compound, or creative escape.Show Description
