This property could initiate a new housing style. It is perfect for the artistic couple. Beautiful, inspirational (not a trite term when applied to this location) setting on a quiet, spring-fed glacial valley lake. 230+ feet of natural lake frontage.
Absolutely generous second story artist’s studio (including sketching alcove overlooking protected, loon-frequented bay). Upscale garret style. Apron front sink. Track lighting. Tree-top ambiance. Even more generous (28x30) first floor shop directly beneath, and connected by stairs to studio. Shop will impress home hobbyist: wired for 220, with plenty of room for the entire range of machinery…table saw, jointer, planer, shaper, band saw, lathe, mill, drill press, etc…OR…an incredible pottery studio with 220 for the kiln. Plus ½ bath and top notch utility sink/cabinet area. Both ½ bath and shop look out over the primitive lakefront.
IN ADDITION
The living quarters. Currently, in addition to the studio/shop areas which account for approximately 50% of the total square footage, there is a two bedroom wing with full bath, full kitchen, large family/great area with commanding view of the lake, mud room, laundry room, mechanical room, two car attached and two car detached garages, PLUS a very soothing knotty-pine ceilinged screened lake-facing porch for quiet lunches, dinners and evening conversations (the porch causes the TV to be neglected from spring to fall).
Seasonal frog pond for the grandkids. Loons, deer, eagles, otters, mergansers, bufflehead, goldeneyes, ravens, kingfishers, herons, bitterns and more wildlife regularly sighted. Very kayaker friendly. Existing configuration entirely livable and comfortable. This is a phased NEW (2002-2004) construction. Third phase is possibility, including master bedroom, main floor kitchen and more, in which case existing living area and bedrooms would become glorious guest wing.
This property is not for everyone…it is suitable only for special, artistic, imaginative souls…perhaps with a lively, nature loving tribe of family and friends.
