Property Description
Welcome to your dream lake home on the shimmering shores of 1,259-acre Knife Lake, just two hours from the Twin Cities! This extensively renovated property offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, income potential, and classic Minnesota lake life.
Flexible Living & Income Potential:
With 5 beds ready for guests and the possibility to finish additional space in the walkout basement (currently 220 sq ft finished, 1,008 sq ft total) for even more sleeping capacity, this home is perfectly suited for Airbnb or Vrbo rental. Imagine hosting large family gatherings, friend getaways, or maximizing your nightly rates with extra sleeping options!
Designed for Every Lifestyle:
Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat, a full-time residence, or a future retirement oasis, this home has you covered. The main floor bedroom and bathroom offer convenient single-level living—an ideal setup for retirees or anyone seeking easy accessibility.
Renovated & Ready:
Enjoy peace of mind with over $140,000 in recent interior renovations (2017, documentation available). Updates include a stunning new kitchen, modern countertops, all new flooring, new lighting, and energy-efficient windows on the upper levels. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully refreshed for comfort, beauty, and low-maintenance living.
Exceptional Outdoor Living:
Step outside to your own private sanctuary. The double lot has been professionally cleared (2018-19, $142,000 invested) to create a panoramic, unobstructed view of Knife Lake. The yard is level to the shoreline—perfect for playing lawn games, hosting barbecues, or simply soaking up sunsets. Two docks offer ample space for boats, jet skis, or sunbathing, and the shoreline has been professionally riprapped for both aesthetics and erosion control.
Massive Garage & Lake Toys:
A detached 780 sq ft garage (26x30) provides all the room you need for vehicles, lake gear, or a workshop.
