Set on 12.5 wooded acres—and bordering 200 acres of conservation land—this property is a private retreat with endless possibilities. Inside, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a private bath, walk-in closets, and a flexible sitting area that could be used as a home office.

A newer automatic generator ensures year-round peace of mind. The unfinished walk-up attic space is available for future expansion if needed. Whether you dream of homesteading, hosting, or simply savoring the peace and beauty of the Lakes Region, this one-of-a-kind property offers it all.
