This is truly the perfect up-north getaway. Tucked in a private spot where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy beautiful Sand Lake. A year-round log home awaits you with a gorgeous stone fireplace and beautiful woodwork throughout. The spacious loft is perfect for extra sleeping room or just for hanging out. The large main-floor bedroom has a walk-in closet and the bath has a whirlpool tub along with the stackable washer and dryer. The enclosed screen porch is the perfect place to take in the outdoors while avoiding the Minnesota mosquitos. The basement has the second bedroom finished with tongue and groove and a potential family room with a walk-out. The yard is blooming with gardens full of beautiful perennials, landscaping, and raised garden beds. There are two storage sheds, an 8x12 and a 12x36 with electricity. There is plenty of room to build a garage on the 4 acre lot. It's an easy path to the lake and dock area. The 210 feet of lakeshore is hard sand bottom and you can fish right off the dock. Make this your up-north retreat or live in year-round.
