About This Home

As of November 2025

Peaceful Northwoods retreat on the quiet shores of Torpy Lake in Minocqua—a non-motorized lake ideal for paddling, fishing, and relaxation. This 4BR, 2BA home offers a great setting with a gentle walk to the water, a private dock, and swim platform. The main level features a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace and access to the large lakeside deck—perfect for enjoying the views of the tamarack forest across the lake. Main level also includes three full bedrooms with closets, and the kitchen/dining area. The finished walk-out lower level offers a rec room, additional bedroom and bathroom, laundry area, and an office. A 3-car detached garage provides ample storage. Recent updates include a newer furnace and new carpeting in the lower level. Less than 20 minutes to Minocqua for shopping, dining, medical and entertainment. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy lake life in a peaceful and natural setting!
