Rarely does a lakefront property offer this much space, frontage, character, and upside all in one package.
Situated on 123 feet of private frontage on sought-after Winans Lake, this one-of-a-kind ranch offers nearly 3,000 square feet above grade, a finished walkout lower level, and a flexible 6-bedroom layout designed for gathering generations of family and friends under one roof.
Unlike anything else on the lake, the home features two original dumbwaiters, a remarkable 'Captain's Quarters' retreat with its own private entrance, and a massive second-floor bunkhouse complete with oversized closet space and built-in cabinetry preserved from the home's original 1950s construction. These distinctive spaces create a property filled with personality, history, and possibilities. The main floor functions as true ranch living, offering accessible first-floor bedrooms, baths, living spaces, and laundry. Hardwood floors, tile flooring, expansive lake views, and a sunroom-style office or guest suite add to the home's versatility.
The finished walkout lower level includes additional bedrooms, a full bath, recreation space, and direct access to the waterfront. Outside, you'll find a 3-car attached garage, detached workshop garage with loft storage, and one of the larger frontage parcels available on Winans Lake.
While the kitchen and bathrooms present opportunities for modernization, the value proposition is compelling. Homes of similar size, quality, and lake presence that have been fully renovated have sold for substantially higher prices, making this an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a signature waterfront property with room to build equity and create their dream lake home.
