Your amazing waterfront home awaits you! This is a very rare opportunity to own a piece of your own private paradise on Silcox Island, surrounded by stunning American Lake. Following a short boat ride, 145 ft of waterfront greets you, boasting 180° westerly views. This idyllic vantage point affords all day sun and phenomenal panoramic sunsets. Lovingly treasured and improved by three generations over 70 years, it’s come time for someone new to build a legacy at this incredibly unique setting. This architecturally designed home carefully unites indoors and outdoors, with abundant windows & skylights providing broad lake views from every living space including the bedrooms. You’ll appreciate the thoughtful layout and quality craftsmanship, making the home comfortable for full time or seasonal enjoyment. Watch the day and boats go by from the gorgeous ironwood deck, and retreat to the intimate gazebo for a fire in the evening. Situated on over a half acre, one of the largest properties on the island, there’s ample space to play, garden, create and simply take in the serenity of the eagles overhead. Includes ownership of dedicated parking for 6+ vehicles & 1 moorage space at the community owned marina. Two docks and a fabulous boathouse w/lift provide numerous vessel spaces on the island. Outbuildings provide extra storage. Private well with superb filtration system. New HVAC installed in 2022. Offered turn-key, with 2 boats and completely furnished!
