Unique and Stunning Property located on beautiful Portage Lake. A paved driveway leads down into the property. This 3 Bedroom ranch home is truly remarkable. High cathedral ceilings throughout the large entry room as well as the living room. Open concept living. Windows spanning all the way to the ceiling provide ample natural light while providing amazing water views. Hardwood and Tile flooring throughout. The master suite provides water views right from the bedroom window. Large master bathroom with walk-in closet. 2 Additional bedrooms on the opposite side. A ''common'' bath with recently installed tile shower. Central Air conditioning is ideal for the summer months. The 12x32 deck features composite decking and provides the perfect space for relaxation. A 2 car garage is attached to the home and features an additional half bath and a heated room once used as a bunk room. Storage above the garage! Also features a finished and heated building that would make a great bunk-house (currently used as a craft-shed). The upper detached garage is ideal for storing yard equipment or off-season toys. Mild shoreline is easy to navigate and not too steep. Dock included! This is one you're going to want to see to appreciate! Video Walkthrough and 3D Virtual Tour are available! Check them out!
