Nearly 25 acres of rolling privacy, two homes, a private lake, historic character, and enough sunset magic to make every evening feel like an escape from reality. At the heart of the property sits the beautifully remodeled main lake home, perfectly positioned beside a stunning 5-acre lake where bass fishing, paddle boarding, and golden hour floating sessions become part of your daily routine. As the sun melts into the horizon, ducks skim across the water, geese settle in for the evening, turtles sunbathe along the shoreline, deer and wild turkey meander through the property, creating a setting that feels peaceful, untouched, and deeply connected to nature. Inside, the main home has been thoughtfully updated with fresh laminate flooring, remodeled kitchen and baths, updated fixtures, brand-new appliances, a tankless water heater, brand-new AC unit, and a cozy wood-burning stove that makes winter evenings feel straight out of a mountain retreat. Large windows frame peaceful water and acreage views, while the expansive deck overlooking the lake creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, weekend BBQs, or slow mornings with coffee as the fog lifts off the water. The second home is a spacious and updated 2 bedroom, 2 bath retreat complete with a covered patio, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, rental income, or simply giving everyone their own space to unwind. The land itself tells a story. Historic rock formations give the property a timeless, almost cinematic feel, while the old root cellar adds a layer of rustic charm you simply can't recreate. The established garden area already has water and power in place, ready for raised beds, greenhouses, or the hobby farm you've been dreaming about. With 3 wells and 2 septic systems, the infrastructure is already in place to support both comfort and possibility. And because the property borders BLM land, the sense of seclusion stretches far beyond your own acreage. Wander endlessly into the surrounding forest, explore nature trails, and enjoy the kind of privacy that's becoming nearly impossible to find. This isn't just a property. It's a lifestyle built around fresh air, quiet mornings, wildlife sightings, sunset paddles, and finally having enough space to breathe. Two homes. Nearly 25 acres + BLM Land. Private lake. The kind of peace people spend their whole lives searching for.
