This is a gorgeous home, built in 1994 with a large addition in 2006, will give you both the convenience of a well-cared, lightly used home and the lovely waterfront so many crave. Enter into the huge living room with prow windows giving you a 180 degree view of Portage Lake. A Vermont Casting propane stove adds coziness for those cool evenings. This room has cathedral ceilings covered in tongue and groove knotty pine. The dining area is incorporated into the living area and features a gorgeous hardwood floor. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet and counter space, a snack bar and nice stainless appliances. 2 bedrooms with nice closets, a large bath with tiled walk-in shower and laundry area complete the main floor. The basement is a walkout, again with big views of the lake from the enormous family room. A propane gas fireplace centers the room. A bedroom with closet and a lovely bath with shower and electric sauna make this a perfect area for guests. A large storage room at the back of the basement has floor to ceiling shelving. The home has six panel solid wood doors, a new roof in 2014, and new mound septic system in 2009, 200 amp electrical system. A new concrete driveway was recently added and all of the garage doors and openers have been replaced in 2015. This driveway is illuminated by a UPPCO installed security light. A one car garage is attached to the home and a second oversize 2 car garage which is heated and has overhead storage is detached. The property has a lush deep front lawn leading to the water’s edge, and a wood fired sauna, and storage building, plus dock and seawall. An underground sprinkler system is installed making it oh so easy to maintain this beautiful lawn.
