LAKEFRONT PRIVACY, ACREAGE & ROOM FOR ALL THE TOYS! Properties like this are truly hard to duplicate. Nestled at the end of the road on 10 rolling, wooded acres, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers approximately 390 feet of private frontage on spring-fed Carp Lake, picturesque views, incredible privacy, and an abundance of storage for the outdoor enthusiast. The home features beautiful cedar siding and a three-season porch where you can sit back and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature through spring, summer, and fall. Imagine waking up to peaceful lake views, watching wildlife move through the woods, or enjoying those breathtaking evenings when Carp Lake becomes perfectly still and reflects the surrounding trees like a mirror. The finished walkout basement adds living and entertaining space, complete with a kitchenette, living/entertaining area, bedroom, full bath, and garage access. Whether used for guests, family, entertaining, or additional living space, the lower level provides flexibility that is hard to find. And then there are the outbuildings! This property is well equipped for someone who needs space for recreational equipment, vehicles, boats, ATVs, side-by-sides, snowmobiles, tractors, or simply wants room to pursue their hobbies. The property includes a 28x32 pole barn, 40x42 pole barn, and 28x28 pole barn with a 12x40 lean-to, along with an 8x16 concrete storage bunker, 10x12 she shed, and a lake shed. An asphalt driveway provides convenient access all the way to the home. A landscaped setting includes striking block retaining walls and a staircase leading down toward the lake. The shoreline once featured a very nice beach area, which has become overgrown over the years without maintenance, but offers the opportunity to reclaim and restore the beach area to its former condition. Carp Lake offers fishing opportunities for pike, pan fish, carp and more. Whether you're fishing, kayaking, enjoying a cup of coffee by the water, or watching the
