About This Home
As of October 2025Welcome to the most lovely Lakeside cottage! Step inside this flawless 3-bedroom, 2-bath home and you’ll be greeted by its calm, inviting atmosphere. The main floor is open and airy, with freshly painted natural tones that pair perfectly with the knotty pine tongue-and-groove ceilings. The living and dining areas are ideal for entertaining and open directly to the kitchen, separated only by a convenient breakfast bar. The updated kitchen is a showstopper, featuring newer stainless steel appliances, maple cabinetry, gorgeous countertops, and the timeless charm of a window over the sink. The spacious primary suite offers a large walk-in closet and a private bath with a beautiful walk-in shower—an absolute must-see! Just outside of the primary bedroom is functional flex space, currently used as an in-home office! The fully finished lower level provides even more living space, with two freshly painted bedrooms, generous closets, a full bath, laundry with updated units, and abundant storage. Outside, the newly stained private deck and patio create the perfect spot to relax or entertain, while the oversized 2-stall garage has room for all your toys. All of this is nestled on a beautifully landscaped lot, just blocks from the Lakewalk, Lake Superior Brewing, Lester Park Trails and so much more! This is one you'll simply have to see to believe—schedule a private tour today!
