Property Description
Offered for the first time in over 30 years due to the sellers downsizing, this charming lake home presents a rare opportunity on Big Birch Lake. Set on nearly 2 acres of land with 80 feet of prime north-facing lakeshore, the property offers a peaceful setting and beautiful water views. The home features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, with an open kitchen and dining area designed to take full advantage of the scenic lakefront. Included with the property are the appliances, as well as the dock and pontoon lift—making it easy to start enjoying lake life right away. Conveniently located just 45 minutes from St. Cloud and Alexandria, and only 90 minutes from the Twin Cities metro area, this property is ideal as a weekend retreat or a full-time residence.
