About This Home

As of June 2022

Extraordinary, nearly 6,000 square foot custom log home on the east shore of Big Glen Lake. Lush grounds and landscaping welcome you, with the guest cottage at the front of the property (where the Burdickville post office use to sit!), and a meandering drive winding to the main house. Inside, the soaring ceilings of the great room beckon, and the panoramic views of Glen Lake pull you in for a closer view. No expense to detail was spared in creating this home. The main floor includes not only the great room, but a chef's kitchen, seating and breakfast nook off the kitchen with Glen Lake vistas, two fireplaces, a family room area, dining room, home office (with lake views once again), gym, laundry room, and a full bedroom and bath. In the lower level, a large family room, theater room, workshop, and storage space offer many more options for expansion, including another sleeping area, as it is currently used. Upstairs, there is a large master suite with lake view, custom walk in shower, and two additional bedrooms and bathrooms (one with a fun, lofted space perfect for kids, and both with lake views!). Outside, the multi tiered decking and large lawn area are perfect for enjoying lakeside life and stellar, west facing sunsets, and the dock and hoist will be left behind for all your water toys! The guest cottage on the property offers another full kitchen, living space, lofted bunk room and bathroom. This impressive home, known as "Glenlore" is really a spectacle to behold! Sold furnished with some exceptions.
