Tucked in the woods on a quiet northern lake, this private retreat offers the seclusion everyone dreams of—no neighbors in sight. The tree-lined driveway sets the tone as you arrive home on over four acres. Step inside to an impressive open floor plan with a soaring ceiling open to below, anchored by a stunning stone fireplace and multi-level, floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light and frame breathtaking lake views.Bringing the outdoors in, the interior features rich wood finishes and natural log posts throughout—including a unique log railing that adds character and charm. The custom kitchen is both functional and scenic, with a large picture window perfect for watching wildlife and a built-in stool height countertop is perfect for gathering in the kitchen. An attached garage adds convenience, while a detached garage offers additional storage for your up-north toys. This is the kind of privacy and peace people hope for in a northern getaway—don’t miss the chance to make it yours.
