Tucked against the pristine wilderness of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW), this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, multi-level home on Cedar Lake offers everything you would expect from a home on the edge of paradise. Sunset views across the lake, over untouched state and federal land; dark sky views of the stars and northern lights; a quiet, clear water lake for fishing, canoeing, and swimming; and an overall private and peaceful setting. Entering into the main level living room, you are greeted with a large dining room window overlooking the lake; a walk through the kitchen leads to the family room and lakeside deck. A few steps up from the living room are the 3 bedrooms and full bath, while a few steps down takes you to the finished basement with a full bath and rec. room for additional space to relax. A 2-car garage with large storage above provides ample space for everything you need to take full advantage of the surrounding landscape. Whether you're looking for a private retreat, a full-time residence, or an investment in Minnesota’s untouched beauty, this property is an extraordinary find. Here, life moves at your pace—whether that’s racing across a frozen lake, paddling through calm waters, or simply enjoying the quiet comfort of home. Whether you seek thrilling outdoor adventures or peaceful solitude, this location offers both.
