Property Description

Wake up to the sun rising over the water. At the end of a quiet dead-end road, this warm and inviting east-facing lake home on Lake Francis offers the privacy, peace, and year-round recreation that lake lovers dream about, all within 70 miles of the Twin Cities. The Lake: Lake Francis spans over 1,053 acres with 7 miles of shoreline, exceptional water clarity, and a hard sand bottom. It's a full-recreation lake teeming with Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Crappie, Bluegill, and more. Summer brings boating, swimming, and sunset pontoon rides. Winter delivers world-class ice fishing and snowmobiling. This lake never runs out of reasons to be here. The Home: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, plus a large office/flex space that adapts to however you live. Set it up as a dedicated work-from-home office with a lake view that makes every call worth showing up for. Use it as a game room for rainy afternoons, a cozy reading nook stocked floor to ceiling with your favorites, a yoga and wellness studio to start the morning right, or a gear and tackle room to keep everything organized and ready to go. At a lake home, a truly flexible space is one of the most valuable things you can have and this one delivers. The Fireplace: The heart of this home is a stunning double-sided fireplace, open to both the living room and the dining room. Picture a late October evening, the lake is glassy, the trees are turning, and a fire crackles warmly on both sides as dinner is served and the conversation flows. It's the kind of architectural detail that makes a house feel like a true retreat, transforming coolMinnesota nights into the coziest moments of the year. Whether you're curled up on the living room couch with a book or gathered around the dining table with family, the fire is always with you. Outdoor Living: Two porches set this property apart. The screened-in porch is your bug-free sanctuary for evening conversations and coffee at sunrise. The open porch is perfectly positioned to soak in those stunning east-facing lake views, the kind of spot where hours disappear without apology. The .70-acre lot offers rare breathing room on a premium lake: space for bonfires, lawn games, and a life lived largely outside. The Garage: The oversized 2-car garage includes a dedicated workshop area, ideal for storing boats, snowmobiles, kayaks, and all the gear that comes with a full four-seasonlake lifestyle. Whether you're tuning up the fishing rods or building something by hand on a crisp fall afternoon, this space delivers. The Location: Sitting at the end of a private dead-end road, this property offers the kind of seclusion that's nearly impossible to find on a lake this size. No through traffic. Total privacy. Just the sounds of water, birds, and your people. The Opportunity: For the buyer ready to enjoy now, move right in and be on the water over 4th of July Weekend. For the buyer with a bigger vision, this east-facing .70-acre lot on a 1,000+ acre full-recreation lake is one of the fine
