What's special
Set on 3.79 acres in Seeley Highlands, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath cedar home offers a quiet, private setting adjacent to Sawyer County public land. Built by a local builder and inspired by Honka design, the 2,613-square-foot home features a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a spacious kitchen and dining area, and a main-level guest bedroom, full bathroom, and a generous sized laundry room. The private upper-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet and spacious bathroom with a separate tub and tiled shower. The upper level tower room looks out over the treetops and includes an exterior balcony! A finished walkout lower level adds a family room with a beverage fridge and a sink, two additional bedrooms, and a bathroom with a sauna. The composite deck and hot tub invite time outdoors in every season. The 2-car detached garage includes additional unfinished space above. The Birkie Trail is accessible via a neighborhood association maintained connector trail, with nearby community trails groomed for classic and skate skiing and routes for hiking, running, road and mountain biking, snow biking, and skijoring. Nearby lakes offer opportunities for swimming and kayaking, and a public golf course is close by. The Hayward area offers events throughout the year and a variety of local dining. At home, listen for hummingbirds and hermit thrushes in summer, play badminton in the backyard, or settle into the hot tub under a star-filled winter sky. The well and septic system were recently inspected and found to be in good working order, and a recent water test returned clean. The neighborhood association maintains the trails, manages the private road (including plowing the common roads in the winter), and provides trash and recycling (~$500/yr).
