About this home

This large two bedroom lakefront getaway has a mix of ceramic, beach and hickory flooring throughout! Although it was originally built in 1938, the front part of the house was built in 1980; then the old part was completely torn down and the new section was added in 2000! You'll fall in love with the master suite with vaulted tongue and groove ceilings and a beautiful master bath equipped with a jetted tub and separate floor to ceiling tiled shower! The kitchen and dining room are open to the living room where there is a beautiful floor to ceiling stone fireplace. The finished basement has the potential for a 3rd bedroom! The out buildings on the property wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t disappoint you! There are 2 large heated garages, one is 28x40 with a 14x28 work shop within and the other is 32x44 with the perfect mother in-law quarters with a kitchenette, living room, bedroom and Ã‚Â¾ bath finished on top! You can also get cozy in the separate sauna building complete with a changing area then run right off the dock splashing into the sand bottom beautiful Johnson Lake! You donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t want to miss out on this beautiful Lakefront getaway!
