Property Description

Wake up to dazzling sunrises and the soothing sound of lapping waves at this breathtaking 5-bedroom, 4-bath home, perfectly nestled on 241 feet of level, sugar-sand shoreline on the serene Big Portage Lake—part of the coveted Portage Chain. This lakeside retreat invites you to embrace the beauty of waterfront living with every detail thoughtfully crafted for comfort and tranquility. For those seeking additional space, a large pole barn across the road is available for separate purchase—contact the listing agent for details.

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by an expansive open-concept living space that blends elegance with function. The chef's kitchen, a true centerpiece, features gleaming granite countertops, custom oak cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an oversized island ready to host everything from casual breakfasts to grand celebrations. Sunlight pours into the multiple living and dining areas, offering front-row views of the shimmering lake from nearly every window.

On the lower level, discover two versatile bonus rooms, perfect for guest accommodations, a private home office, or a personal gym. The home's storage options are unparalleled, with a triple-attached garage and a hidden lower-level garage complete with a workshop for all your tools and toys.

Outside, the magic continues. Start your mornings with coffee on the deck while the sky blazes with color, and spend your afternoons on your private sandy beach, where the crystal-clear water gently meets the shore. The ShoreMaster dock is ready for your boat and lake adventures, from peaceful paddleboarding to sunset cruises.

Situated near the Deep Portage Wildlife Management Area, this home offers endless outdoor exploration for nature lovers—hiking, birdwatching, and endless starlit skies await just beyond your doorstep. With rock-solid construction, exquisite details throughout, and a full pre-inspection report available, this home is truly move-in ready.

This lakeside sanctuary is more than a home; it's a lifestyle. Schedule your private showing today and step into your dream retreat.
