There are lake properties, and then there are properties like this. Over 500 feet of frontage on Island Lake, your own boat launch, an expansive beach and a spectacular home to go with it—this property is something special! Located on a dead-end road with incredibly easy access from Duluth, this could be your year-round home or the lake place where you head whenever you have a free afternoon. A gradual walk from the house brings you down to the shoreline, where there is room for two docks, boats,...There are lake properties, and then there are properties like this. Over 500 feet of frontage on Island Lake, your own boat launch, an expansive beach and a spectacular home to go with it—this property is something special! Located on a dead-end road with incredibly easy access from Duluth, this could be your year-round home or the lake place where you head whenever you have a free afternoon. A gradual walk from the house brings you down to the shoreline, where there is room for two docks, boats, jet skis and all the fishing gear. A storage shed sits right at the beach, there’s a spot for evening campfires, and your own private boat launch makes getting on the water incredibly easy. Swim out to the island, spend the day boating, or simply take in miles of Island Lake views. Inside, quality is evident throughout. The main level is wide open yet has dedicated living, dining and office areas, all surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows capturing those incredible lake views. The renovated kitchen features a center island, solid-surface counters, gas range with hood and an abundance of pantry space. Upstairs, the lofted primary suite may be the “wow” of the home. Wake up overlooking the lake, enjoy a private bath and walk-in closet, and climb the ladder to the charming little “lookout” room above. It’s unexpected, romantic and completely unique. The finished walkout lower level adds two more bedrooms, a remodeled bath, fireplace and doors leading to the patio and outdoors. A spacious laundry and storage room, beautiful cabinetry and woodwork, plus the luxury of a bath on every level complete the home. With incredible frontage, privacy, beach, boat launch and a home built to truly enjoy the setting, Island Lake living doesn’t get much better than this! Then comes the fun—a separate bunkhouse/party room ready for games, a bar and summer nights with a crowd. A second storage garage provides room for everything from patio furniture and lake toys to snowmobiles, skis and ice-fishing gear. A truly special location sits this truly special LAKEHOME! These sellers have created this retreat and are passing it on to the next owners to fall in love with it as much as they were!
