Welcome to Lake Alice living at its best!
This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers glorious views of Lake Alice and a perfect blend of timeless character and modern comfort.
Step inside to the warmth of hardwood floors and in-floor heated tile in the kitchen and main-floor bath. The spacious living room, complete with a cozy gas fireplace, is ideal for gatherings or quiet evenings at home.
The kitchen balances modern updates with classic style, while abundant natural light pours through newer windows throughout the home. Downstairs, you’ll find a generous family room with a second gas fireplace, plenty of storage, and flexible space for hobbies or future expansion.
Outside, if you're not enjoying leisurely walks around the lake, enjoy peaceful mornings or quiet evenings on your spacious backyard maintenance free deck (new in 2024). And wait until you see the stunning perennial gardens that complete your own private retreat! A two-car detached garage, equipped with new doors and openers adds convenience and functionality.
Located in the highly desired Lake Alice neighborhood, you’ll be close to parks, downtown, schools, and everything that makes Fergus Falls feel like home.
Come see how character, comfort, and care come together — this home is truly special.
