This is a must see Garden Lake home. Luxurious upgrades have been made to this lakeside property. A beautiful kitchen boasts a granite counter top, tile back splash, stainless steel appliances, hickory kitchen cabinets and hickory hardwood floors. In the master bath you will find a granite double bowl vanity and tile throughout. This 3 bedroom plus den home provides a spacious amount of room for a large family. The inviting living space has a centrally located fireplace that warms the whole house and leads out to a spacious deck that captures picturesque views of the mature red and white pines moving gently in the breeze. A dock is included and the deep water located along this shoreline provides easy access for your boat or pontoon as well as great swimming. New drilled well and compliant septic. Located just 3 miles from shopping in historic Ely and getting to school or work couldn't be more convenient. There is much more to say about this beautiful home, but seeing is believing!
