Balsam Lake, Wisconsin year-round cabin on Dixie Bay, less than 2 hours from the Twin Cities! Tucked down old Leeland Court just before the Big Narrows, where boats slow down, this updated lake cabin puts great fishing right out front on one of Western Wisconsin's most sought-after lakes. Inside, it's every bit as adorable as the photos, and the layout makes it more functional than you'd expect. Extensive updates (see list) include shiplap walls, knotty pine ceilings, fresh paint throughout, and newly painted siding. On the main level, a bright, window-lined dining room flows into the living room with its brick fireplace, and on to a kitchen with a beverage fridge and a cozy eat-in table. The walkout lower level has a family room with a wall of lake-view windows that opens right onto the stone patio. Outside, the .44-acre lot is made for entertaining, lawn games, and chill evenings around the fire. Updates include new landscaping, stone stairs, an extended flagstone patio, and privacy fencing, and there's a detached garage for the boat and toys. Two docks and some furniture and décor are included. It's a low-maintenance lake home as it is, and the lot leaves room to expand the cabin down the road (buyer to verify with Polk County zoning). Balsam Lake offers over 1,900 acres for boating, fishing, and swimming, plus two restaurants and a full-service marina. Move in now, enjoy fall color and cozy winter nights by the fire, and make plans for your next season on the lake. Start living your best life on Balsam Lake today!
