Nestled on 6.5 pine studded acres with 369+/- feet of pristine Mitchell Lake shoreline, this stunning new log home offers a rare blend of craftsmanship, comfort, and Northwoods beauty. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the impressive scale of the Minnesota red pine logs and the meticulous attention to detail throughout this year round home or retreat. The open concept main level seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen; ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A striking Virginia slate, wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, rivaled only by the breathtaking north facing panoramic lake views. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, and high end stainless appliances. The primary bedroom suite features a barn door entrance to the soaking tub and walk in shower. Just off the dining area, a three season screened porch provides a perfect setting for outdoor dining free of mosquitos. A no maintenance, wraparound deck extends the living space and offers exceptional view of undeveloped state land and, when conditions allow, the mesmerizing Aurora Borealis. The lower level is equally inviting, with in-floor heat throughout, a cedar wrapped wet sauna with electric stove, bathroom, and cozy sitting room with a freestanding propane fireplace. A spacious lakeside great room opens to a walkout patio, while the mechanical room offers generous storage. Upstairs, the loft bedroom captures the same incredible lake views making a peaceful retreat. Built intentionally with many native Minnesota materials, this home includes SIP roof panels, a durable steel roof, cedar lined bathrooms, Marvin windows and doors, a high efficiency forced air HVAC system with boiler, central AC, and luxury vinyl flooring. Additional features include a detached garage with steel roof and floor drain, ample space for recreational vehicles, RV parking with electrical hookup, drilled well, 3 bedroom septic system. This property is truly turnkey, being sold fully furnished, including appliances, electronics, and two docks. Make your dreams come true now with this unique and lovely home.
