Welcome to this lovely, year round home on sparkling Balch Lake. This move in ready home offers you the joy of waterfront living with 149 feet of private shoreline with low boat traffic. There are plenty of docks for your boats and great swimming with a sandy lake bottom. Southern exposure lights up the interior of the open concept home.

Master Suite is on the first level, with the other two good sized bedrooms on the second floor, allowing one to invite family and friends to stay awhile to enjoy this private setting near the end of the quiet road.
