Peaceful Strand Lake is calling you to enjoy the woods and water with every sunrise and sunset. This year-round Lake home has additional vacation rental possibilities from the separate Guest suite overlooking the lake. Invite family and friends and enjoy privacy with the guest suite or use it for income. The main home features three bedrooms and three bathrooms with a gorgeous main floor master suite added in 2008. The multi-level master suite has a glass wall overlooking the lake and private deck. The 750 square foot master suite will be a great place to unwind for the day while sitting on your deck or soaking in the six-foot tub with a gas stove. In 2008, this two-level master suite was added to the main home. The second level with ½ bath could be an additional master suite or great flex space for you to decide. Can you imagine a day catching Walleye right off your dock or jumping in for a swim? On a cool fall night enjoy the sauna right next to the lake edge or relax in one of the two screened porches. It is easy to entertain with the kitchen and breakfast bar, dining room, and living room seamlessly flowing together for easy gatherings anytime of the year. A glass wall separates that space from the lake-side family room. Imagine having two fireplaces to gather around; the wood-burning fireplace vents into three rooms and easily heats the main living area. In addition to the main floor master suite there is another bedroom with library, ¾ bathroom with adjacent laundry/utility area, and an office/craft room. The studio guest suite above the garage is over 800 square feet, featuring a kitchen with bar open to the living/dining room and ¾ bathroom perched above the lake. Recent updates to the main home and guest suite include new roof, kitchen countertops and backsplash, refrigerator, bathroom sinks, lighting fixtures, and guest suite bathroom, flooring, fenced in yard, and so much more. There are many places to sit and relax outside to enjoy the beautiful flowering lilacs, perennials, fruit trees and bushes. The two screened in porches overlooking the lake are perfect for mosquito-free summer gatherings. Enjoy currants, rhubarb, asparagus, aronia berries, kiwis, plums, cherries, apples, grapes and more in your fenced garden area. Outside the cedar fencing and private iron gate there is a lawn for summer sports. The roomy garage has a workbench and two adjacent heated rooms. Lake life is calling you to your northern private retreat on Strand Lake!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
