Have you been watching for waterfront property that offers a gracious home as well as peaceful nature right outside your door? Take a moment to savor this listing. Situated on Long Lake in the Twig area, this home offers many opportunities for family, for entertaining and for a home office. The 26-acre parcel with more than 1,300' of shoreline is bristling with fauna and bejeweled with a wide variety of trees and flora. Eagles, foxes, turtles, fish, deer, wolf, bunny--you'll be living in their world in this peaceful retreat. The home has a seamless addition that added private bedrooms, bath and laundry. A few years back the sellers installed unique flooring made from reclaimed lumber salvaged from the bottom of lakes and rivers. You'll marvel at the variety of wood species that add so much character and history to this home. The main floor is spacious and open, with windows that just won't quit. Kitchen has a breakfast bar, an informal dining area, and the sun room adjacent. Everywhere you turn the home is filled with the beauty gained by living in the tree tops. A short walk down the path takes you past a garden area that could easily be revived, and then straight to the dock. Fish, pontoon, paddle, ski or snowshoe out your own front door every day of the year. And don't forget to bring the binoculars! In 2015 state-of-the art solar panels were installed, with an expected 25-year life expectancy. The 6-kW system produces approximately 6,000 kWh annually--a tangible benefit for a home heated primarily by electric. Details are available.
