Property Description
A little piece of private heaven with fantastic, unobstructed views of Merrill Lake! Imagine waking up to views of the water and enjoying your morning coffee from the full-length deck. The semi-open floor plan flows easily from the kitchen into the living area. The kitchen features lake views, plenty of storage, and a charming three-sided breakfast nook. The combined dining and living room is kept cozy by a pellet stove insert, while wood floors allow for flexible furniture placement. A bonus room off the living area is ideal for a home office or additional sleeping space. The spacious primary bedroom easily accommodates a full suite of furniture and features double closets and a windowed area perfect for a reading nook. The full bathroom includes a soaking tub, separate shower, and sliding glass door overlooking the lake. The lower level offers a large recreation room, an exercise area with lake views, and three additional rooms. Two are legal bedrooms, while the third is a versatile flex room without an exterior window. Step outside to relax on the lower-level swing and take in the peaceful surroundings. The property gently slopes toward the water, with a walkway leading to the lake and plenty of pine trees providing shade. A good-sized freestanding shed offers convenient storage for lawn, lake, and recreational equipment. A shared lake-access site just down the road provides a convenient place to launch and enjoy Merrill Lake.
