The setting is something you simply can't create. Tucked into 3.5 beautiful acres and surrounded by 3 square MILES of County Forest land, this special Northwoods property offers something increasingly difficult to find: privacy, water, wildlife, room to roam, and Lake Superior just 3.2 miles away. Now offered at **$225,000**, E2794 Lake Rd deserves a look! A crystal-clear trout stream winds through the east side of the property, tumbling over charming mini waterfalls and filling the setting with the peaceful sound of moving water. Two spring-fed gravity ponds: one reaching approximately 18 feet deep when full (features adjustable water-control valves and previously supported trout habitat, currently low controlled water level). Add expansive lawns, perennial gardens, mature apple and pear trees, and a picturesque barn, and this is far more than a house or camp on acreage. It's a little piece of the Northwoods to call your own. The cozy two-bedroom home makes a wonderful year-round residence, Up North getaway, hunting base camp, or homestead. A wheelchair-accessible ramp leads to the expansive wraparound deck, while the covered pavilion creates a favorite spot for morning coffee, outdoor meals, or simply listening to the stream. Inside, a tongue-and-groove mudroom gives boots, jackets, fishing gear, and outdoor equipment a proper landing place. The living room opens to a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the property, while the bright kitchen features white cabinetry, a peninsula with seating, bay window, pantry closet, and newer appliances. Two comfortable bedrooms offer generous closet space, and the bathroom features a convenient low-threshold shower. The full basement provides laundry, workshop and abundant storage space, while the detached two-car garage has a new garage door. Step outside and the real magic becomes clear. Explore your own ponds and stream. Pick apples and pears from your orchard. Garden. Hunt. Hike. Watch wildlife wander through. Head a few miles down the road to the shores of Lake Superior, or simply stay home and enjoy a setting that already feels like an escape. Homes can be changed. The setting is something you simply can't create. Come take another look at E2794 Lake Rd—**now offered at $225,000**—and imagine what you could make of this special place.
