An additional full, two-car garage, with concrete floor and living quarters in the back (including even more sleeping spaces, kitchen, and bathroom) provides excellent security for your vehicles, ATVs, tools, and gives another location for additional guests. The manicured yard hosts a sandy beach, wooden dock, several pavilion locations, ample play or recreational spaces, sturdy playground equipment, and an extra-tall two-stall boathouse located next to the pond. This portion of the property has a very strong history of earning revenue, used as a country bed and breakfast location through Air B&B.

The great room is professionally designed and decorated, adding to the feelings of being in a northern lodge or mountain get-away. Earth tones, bright lighting, and panoramic windows contribute to the sense of being in the country and part of the outdoors.

Additional storage in vintage and restored woodshed / barn can be utilized or returned to service as a chicken coop or home for animals.

These homes are simply turn-key in every regard and have been maintained to the highest standards of neatness and functionality. Each has its own unique character.
