About This Home
Enjoy 120 feet of pristine shoreline on Lake Vermilion from this private lot in Niles Bay, centrally located for quick access to both the west and east ends of the lake. With big water views in a cove formed by an island and point. Offered fully furnished, it's ready for immediate enjoyment from day one. A brand-new $15,000 dock was installed for the 2024 season, with 7 feet of water off the end—ideal for swimming, fishing, and boating. The dock includes power and a Floe VSD 5000 lift that works for either a pontoon or a fishing boat, with extra bunks included for both setups. A fire pit at the water’s edge provides the perfect spot to relax after a day on the lake, and a lakeside sauna permit has already been approved. Snowmobile enthusiasts will appreciate both the private trail from the driveway to the lake and direct access to the DNR-staked snowmobile trail system once on the lake. The home sits on a quiet, low-traffic access road for added peace and privacy, with a new roof installed in 2022. A storage shed is also on site—perfect for housing tools, lake gear, or seasonal equipment. Inside, the main level is warm and welcoming, with a cozy living room centered around a propane stove. The adjoining kitchen offers practical functionality while the dining area flows comfortably toward the deck for easy indoor-outdoor living. A bright and inviting sunroom provides the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind while taking in lake views in any season. A half bath is also located on this level for convenience. Upstairs, the open loft serves as the primary bedroom, with plenty of space and natural light. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, one of which is considered non-conforming as it does not have egress windows. A large mudroom with ample gear storage, a 3⁄4 bathroom, laundry area, and walkout access to the lake—making it ideal for hosting guests or accommodating family. With thoughtful layout and purposeful spaces across three levels, the home blends rustic charm with lakeside comfort, ready for year-round enjoyment. Whether you're seeking four-season adventure or peaceful retreat, this Niles Bay gem checks all the boxes.
