If you appreciate 1934 log architecture w/ beautifully designed additions & updates plus 320 feet of Portage lake frontage, this is for you. If you are expecting a perfect new house this is not for you. This gorgeous property features a 5 BR, 4 bath home. The kitchen was updated with top of the line cabinets, including double pantries; pull out drawers and shelves, gas cooktop, built in oven & microwave plus Silestone counter tops, offset by a tile backsplash on a Duraceramic floor. Off of this is a breakfast nook w/ window seat & built in desk. A large walk-in pantry is tucked under the stairs for even more storage. A 3/4 bath w/ tile & stone walk in shower & huge vanity is off the main floor laundry. The living room has a gorgeous stone fireplace with a gas insert, the dining area has the original copper lights, & this is a large open space just off the kitchen perfect for entertaining. The family room was the old front porch & converted many years ago, a corner wood fireplace makes this, while large, a cozy inviting space. A screen porch across the entire front of home was added 5 years ago. The second floor of the original log home has 4 BR, 2 with nice closets (1 cedar lined), 2 without & a full bath. In 2006 the owners added a master suite with its own air conditioning, & propane heating system. The windows are triple pane with blinds. There is also another laundry area in this fabulous space. The large bedroom has a gas fireplace & double walk in closets with organizers. The master bath features a double vanity w/ wood counter top & copper sinks, a ramped enormous walk in shower & separate toilet room. 10x12 and 11x12 offices are on either side of the bedroom. The main floor of this home is wheelchair accessible. Sliding glass doors from 3 different areas of this addition lead to the trex deck w/ copper railings that runs along the front of the home & overlooks the lake. The waterfront has an L shaped dock w/ electricity on both ends, wood seawall (needs work), private seadoo slip, a small boat launch, gazebo w/ concrete floor, a sauna building w/ propane stove, & a storage shed. In the late 1970’s a pool house was added. The 34x14 pool has a concrete bottom & fiberglass sides, there is a separate whirlpool & wood stove in this room. The pool heater was replaced in 2012. A 22x15 exercise room w/ tongue & groove pine walls, & a 10x12 cedar lined sauna, and a 3/4 bath is off of the pool room. A breeze way leads from here to what was once a 3 car garage but is now a woodworking shop, a large work area, a cozy winestube (wine tasting area) with Franklin stove, & huge storage room completely lined w/ shelving. A 2 car oversized garage is near the road. The home is wired with an alarm system and also has invisible dog fencing installed. This home has so many unique features, not only would it make a fabulous home, it would be a great bed and breakfast, retreat or spa.
