Welcome to this rare lakefront ranch situated on a beautiful 3/4 acre peninsula on desirable electric-motor-only Indianwood Lake. This hidden-gem sits far back from the road in a peaceful and private setting with incredible water views from nearly every angle of the home and property. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice spectacular lake views throughout. The open kitchen offers abundant counter and cabinet space and flows into the spacious living room, where oversized windows fill the home with natural light and showcase the stunning water and yard views. The living room also features a natural fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space to relax. This 3-bedroom home also includes a large window filled 3-season room just off the living room overlooking the property and lake. From there, step out onto the expansive deck, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the incredible 180-degree views of the water. The finished basement provides additional living space, along with a large unfinished area ideal for storage, a workshop, or future personal finishes. Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard is ready for your enjoyment. Launch your boat, kayak, or paddleboard, jump off the dock for a swim, go fishing, or simply take in the peaceful lakefront setting. The property is truly amazing and is a must see to believe how stunning it is. Additional updates include a newer roof (2024), newer windows (2019), and a newer well (2016). As a bonus there is a large outdoor barrel sauna too. Located close to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy lakefront living without sacrificing convenience.
