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. The inviting wood-sided sunroom is an ideal place to enjoy a lazy afternoon, surrounded by nature’s beauty. For gardeners, the grounds are a dream—complete with established gardens, blueberry bushes, sunny growing space for vegetables or flowers, and even a greenhouse for year-round planting. A chicken coop and storage shed add to the property’s charm and functionality. Perfect for extended family, guests, or rental income, the in-law/studio apartment with private entrance—featuring a kitchenette and full bath—sits above the heated garage for maximum privacy and comfort. Unique and practical, the home includes two heating systems: a traditional oil-fired setup and a wood-burning system for sustainable living. 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.
