Description

Discover the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and Up North adventure with this beautiful 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on 7 wooded acres—just 0.37 miles from Torch Lake with deeded access, a shared dock, and the potential of your very own boat slip. To ensure continued lake access, Seller is offering a $6,000 concession to cover three years of in/out marina service should a slip not be immediately available at the deeded access. Inside, the updated kitchen shines with granite countertops, a microwave drawer, and wide-open views in every direction. The cozy living room, complete with a Hearthstone wood stove, sets the scene for quiet evenings after a day on the lake. Step outside to the spacious Trex deck—imagine gathering around the fire pit, or soaking in the peaceful surroundings where a couple of impressive 8-point bucks are known to visit. The main level features a mud room, a flexible nook perfect for reading or a home office, plus a guest bedroom and ¾ bath. Upstairs, the primary suite offers two closets (one walk-in) and a private balcony overlooking the property. A tiled shower, garden tub, convenient laundry room, and an additional bedroom complete the upper level. The lower level family room offers another cozy gathering space with storage and the mechanical room nearby. Outdoors, you will find a 24’x36’ heated garage with side storage, a gardening shed with grapevines nearby, and wood-chipped paths that wind through three acres to a bench overlooking a tranquil ravine. Recent updates include a new furnace, remodeled bathroom, raised gardens, updated sprinkler system, and refreshed landscaping. A major 2018 renovation brought a new kitchen/dining area, siding, roof, wood floors, recessed LED lighting, and a whole-house Generac generator for peace of mind. This home is more than just a residence—it’s a retreat, a gathering place, and a gateway to the unmatched beauty of Torch Lake living.
