Extraordinary waterfront paradise retreat!
Outdoor recreation and relaxation are at the door step of this beautifully appointed, year-round luxury residence, situated on the breathtaking shores of Lac Des Mille Lacs, including a spacious three-bedroom guest cottage, heated triple garage, sauna building, all surrounded by nature's very best, including gorgeous gardens and mature forest.
Enjoy exceptional swimming from the wonderful sand beach, excellent fishing right from the dock, boating, kayaking, canoeing, hiking and much more. The dock includes a boat lift.
Or simply relax, sip a favourite beverage, entertain family and friends on the expansive multi-tier deck that overlooks the magnificent lake-front setting, around a crackling fire near the water's edge, cook a pizza or bake some bread in the wood-fired oven, unwind in the sauna. There's no need to pay for high-priced vacations when you own this fabulous waterfront property.
The beautifully appointed main house boasts a generous 1,750 square feet that include three bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. A cedar cathedral ceiling soars in the bright open-concept living room, formal dining room and colonial kitchen with large eat-up centre island, which also feature gleaming oak hardwood flooring. Large floor-to-ceiling picture windows frame spectacular lake views in the living room, which also has a Pacific Energy wood-burning fireplace.
Adjacent is a spacious four-season sunroom with bamboo bar, bamboo hardwood flooring, and its own cedar cathedral ceiling. Sliding glass doors lead to the deck, groomed front yard, and to the impressive lake.
Other highlights of the home include a sauna with shower (in addition to the sauna building), main-floor laundry, central air conditioning, integrated Generac propane generator, high-speed Starlink Internet, cell-phone booster, as well as a partial basement.
The fully insulated guest cottage is highly accommodating and boasts 700 square feet — complete with a living area with Pacific Energy wood-burning fireplace, along with three bedrooms. A modern outhouse is nearby for the guest cottage.
The insulated detached triple garage has 1,350 square feet, comes with electricity, a forced-air propane furnace and automatic door opener.
A maintenance-free metal roof is on all buildings, including the main house, guest cottage, garage and sauna building.
Upsala amenities are just 20 minutes away and include a general store with LCBO, community centre and school.
Thunder Bay is about an hour and a half drive. The USA border is just over two hours away.
