Property remarks

Nature Lover's Paradise on 1,373 Feet of Waterfront. Wake up to breathtaking sunrises and unwind each evening with spectacular sunsets from this peaceful waterfront retreat. With 1,373 feet of water frontage, this property offers exceptional privacy and endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors in every season. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch home features the convenience of one-level living with a finished walkout basement connected by a stunning winding staircase. Radiant heated floors on the main level provide year-round comfort, while handcrafted solid wood cabinet doors and matching utility room doors add warmth and character throughout the home. An electric furnace in the attached garage offers additional convenience. Step outside into a true nature sanctuary. The land has been maintained organically for the past 26 years, with no chemicals used, making it an ideal setting for gardeners, wildlife enthusiasts, and, anyone looking for a natural environment. Stroll along wooded walking trails, relax by the inground swimming pool, or enjoy the expansive open space that's perfect for horses, hobby farming, another outbuilding, or simply preserving the peaceful surroundings. The established landscape includes a variety of herbs and edible plants, including peppermint, chamomile, oregano, chives, thyme, winter savory, lavender, blueberry bushes, a mature grape arbor, and wild raspberry patches—creating a property that's as beautiful as it is productive. A 60’ x 30' heated and insulated outbuilding with a wood-burning stove and attached covered porch provides endless possibilities for a workshop, studio, recreational space, or storage. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate that the property borders 68 miles of the Buffalo Run Snowmobile Trail, offering direct access to snowmobiling in winter, as well as opportunities for snowshoeing, hiking, wildlife watching, and year-round adventure. Whether you're looking for a private family retreat, a recreational getaway, or a place where nature takes center stage, this exceptional waterfront property offers a lifestyle that's increasingly hard to find.
