Property Description

Rare Opportunity! Have you always wanted to live on a Minnesota lake just minutes from downtown? Imagine a beautiful home with breathtaking views of nature, on nearly three-quarters of an acre of lakeside property adorned with native trees and plants. Perhaps you’ve even dreamed of owning chickens? If so, this is your dream home! Don’t be fooled by the ordinary street view. This home sits atop a large hill, providing stunning lake views from almost every room. It exudes a sense of grandeur, featuring a spacious formal dining room with a gas fireplace open to the living room, offering a memorable view and walkout to the upper deck. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms on the same level and a full bathroom. More breathtaking views of the lake from two of the upper-level bedrooms. The lower level offers a casual and cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a newly renovated 3/4 bath, a convenient walkout, and another incredible lake view! On the other side of the house is a private lower-level fourth bedroom (with a lake view, of course). To enjoy the views even more, there are new windows in almost every room. But wait...there's more! The impeccably clean basement provides a comfortable laundry area, lots of storage, and a workbench area to be envied. Outside, you'll find two ground-level patios and an upper-level wood deck to relax and bask in the beauty. The yard is perfect for swinging, sailing, fires by the lake in a hand-crafted smokeless fire ring, and kayaking for miles up the Rice Creek River, which feeds Locke Lake. In the winter, you can enjoy sledding, cross-country skiing, and ice skating. It's undetermined which season provides the most spectacular views. Did someone say chickens? The current owners enjoy raising their six happy chickens, who provide daily eggs for the household and are also a lot of fun. While taking their beloved hens with them, they'll be glad to leave the chicken set-up for a future chicken-loving buyer. This non-traditional yard is being transformed into an edible and medicinal permaculture area. Look in supplements or ask your agent for a list of recent improvements to the home and property, and a letter from the seller about the property (all found in supplements).
