About this home

Stunning Mille Lacs Lake retreat offering the perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and classic Up North charm - only 90 minutes away from the Twin Cities. With 250 feet of pristine sand shoreline, this property delivers breathtaking open water views and the soothing sound of waves right outside your door—an exceptional setting for both relaxation and entertaining. This fully remodeled home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout, featuring custom red oak cabinets, granite countertops, and a spacious center island ideal for gathering. The main level boasts beautifully refinished wood floors, a bright sunroom, and a welcoming family room, all complemented by one of two cozy gas fireplaces (with an additional fireplace in the great room). Multiple sitting areas throughout the home create inviting spaces to unwind. Designed with comfort and flexibility in mind, the home offers two full primary suites—one on the upper level and one on the lower—each with large closets, plus an additional ensuite bedroom and a convenient main floor ¾ bath perfect for lake days. The lower level also provides versatile space ideal for a craft room, sewing area, or bunk room. Beyond the main home, this property truly stands out with its impressive collection of additional structures and amenities. A fully staged guest cabin (16x8) with a 16x6 screened porch, windows and screens, 3/4 bath, and cooking area provides a charming private retreat for visitors. The 18x10 boathouse, complete with electricity, sits right at the water’s edge for ultimate convenience. Storage and hobby space abound with a clean and ready-to-use main garage, a 24x24 attached, insulated, sheet-rocked, and heated garage with a 12x6 workshop, and an expansive 56x30 pole barn with a 6x56 overhang—perfect for boats, lake toys, and all your recreational needs. A delightful potting shed with its own porch and swing adds even more character to the beautifully maintained grounds. The outdoor setting is truly park-like, featuring a 12-zone irrigation system, over 60 mature pine trees, 10 newly planted pines, and four University of Minnesota Innova trees added in recent years. Thoughtfully designed landscaping includes brick-lined garden beds throughout, creating a serene and picturesque environment. Additional highlights include two separate septic systems (1000-gallon and 1500-gallon tanks with two drain fields) and all-new utilities, including furnace, A/C, water heater, water purification system, and pressure tank. This is more than just a lake home—it’s a complete lifestyle property offering multiple living spaces, exceptional amenities, and unmatched natural beauty on one of Minnesota’s most sought-after lakes.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
