Located in the heart of Brainerd, this home is just minutes from dining, shopping, biking trails, and parks, offering both convenience and a peaceful retreat. Additionally, much of the bedroom and TV room furniture can be included in the sale, and with an acceptable offer, the seller is willing to sell the boat currently stored in the garage. One of the best features of this property is that lake levels remain steady even in a drought, thanks to the Mississippi River and dam-controlled water levels. Whether you're looking for a year-round home or a vacation getaway, this property offers everything you need for the ultimate lakefront lifestyle. Don’t miss out—schedule your private showing today!
