The +/- 240’ of level shoreline provides phenomenal westerly views and great swimming. The beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bath energy efficient home was built by Barry Bissonette, a well-known log contractor in the area – using only the best building materials for our climate – including red cedar logs from British Columbia and a “polar roof” (extra insulated designed for harsh Alaskan winters). The home features a large living/dining room with a wood burning fireplace, spectacular lake views, main-floor bed and bath, and an updated kitchen with solid surface counters and stainless appliances. The walk-out lower primary suite features in-floor heat, corner wood stove, a built-in desk, and a sitting area with ideal lake views. Private ¾ bath with a sauna plus a laundry/utility room complete the lower level. At the shore you will find a lovely water accessory building, quality dock and boat lift. The 2.5-stall detached garage provides additional storage for all your lake toys! This property comes with a shared boat launch just down the road. Additional acreage and lakeshore are available. Home is being sold furnished - so move right it and enjoy lake living at its finest.
