Property Description
Enchanted by the music of loons singing against the celestial awe of the Milky Way, enjoy the ultimate in waterfront living with your year-round home on Balch Lake. This incredibly private property features a 350' waterfront, with a private island providing an additional 413' of shoreline. All rooms except one feature water view. A living room with vaulted ceiling greets your entrance with the warmth of natural wood and abundant natural lighting. The completely updated kitchen and bathrooms blend modern features and conveniences with rustic charm. The well-lighted kitchen connects directly to a separate dining room. The main floor bedroom features a large walk-in closet and a private deck. The main floor bathroom features a large walk-in shower, double-sink vanity and laundry area. A wood pellet stove and two mini-split units ensure a comfortable living environment year-round on the main floor. The second floor features 2 guest bedrooms, (one w/mini-split) and a full bathroom. Expansive double decks overlook a spacious private yard and a pristine shoreline affording a panoramic view of the lake with its abundant wildlife. The waterfront features a 30 X 6 ft. boat dock, a separate small dock for kayaks and canoes, and a railed trolly system with electric winch for easy boat removal and launching directly on to the shore for winter storage, if desired. A separate 14' X 14' shed provides additional storage for equipment, tools and toys. The oversized (14') paved driveway leads to an oversized (24' X 26') two car garage featuring a full walk-up attic for more storage. The stand-by generator always ensures your comfort and peace-of-mind year round. With a secluded location at the end of a private road, this retreat offers peace, privacy and direct access to all that Balch Lake has to provide. This one-of-a-kind property provides a rare opportunity as a year-round sanctuary, a vacation spot or waterfront investment.
