Your Private Oasis on the Palmer/Tenderfoot Chain.

Boasting an incredible 995 feet of west-facing frontage on Palmer Lake, you will enjoy spectacular sunset views over 3.26 exceptionally private acres.

A smooth blacktop driveway guides you to a premium building site, where a previous structure leaves behind a perfect canvas for your dream home. A 2,400-square-foot basement foundation remains after the fire, there is a drilled well, electricity, fiber optic internet & a 3-bedroom conventional septic system. The grounds feature a beautiful yard, an elegant paver patio with a firepit & professionally landscaped walkway with fieldstone steps leading directly to the pier. Complementing the site is a 32x32 detached garage with electric, a large woodshed and fenced-in garden. For outdoor enthusiasts, the property offers direct access to the ATV & snowmobile trails plus the Tenderfoot Forest Reserve for hiking, yet keeps you remarkably connected just 2 miles from the legendary Cisco Chain Big Lake boat landing, 13 miles from Land O’ Lakes and 18 miles from Boulder Junction. This extraordinary property delivers the ultimate head start for your dream home, perfectly positioned on one of the chain's most private and beautiful points.
