About this home
Demo is done, some renovations started, seeking visionary with ability to bring this Labor of Love to fruition.
A rare chance to take an unfinished structure and turn it into a home that reflects your style, needs, and creativity.
Create your own peaceful lakefront retreat in a beautiful park-like wooded setting, featuring a fish filled lake, amazing sunsets over the lake to the west and the peaceful whistle of the wind through the pines. Tucked away on a short dirt road, this home is located on Riley Lake in Star Lake Forest. This quiet community rings around Riley Lake and extends to the larger Star Lake. The Star Lake community offers an optional membership entitling Riley Lake residents to also access Star Lake. A place where time slows….neighbors host friendly gatherings, lend a hand, and you’re invited to the next potluck! The property is forested on one side and set back from the road, offering the privacy you have longed for. A short walk leads to an 18th century cemetery hinting at an earlier historically significant time. The house features a spacious kitchen wing where preparing meals will be a joy, (Did I mention the kitchen also has an awesome view of the lake?) The expansive great room enhances the soothing views of the lake and sunsets! All new copper plumbing throughout the house in 2023. Why copper? Because it generates a healing frequency that amplifies as water travels through the pipes. New metal roofs (house & garage) 2024 plus the newly installed wood stove chimney (2025) is prepared to receive the stove of your choice if desired! Most of the home is clad with 5/4 rough sawn boards that are believed to be cypress. High fence enclosed deer resistant garden with "layered" enriched soil awaits the planting of your old favorites and new endeavors. Maybe create a permaculture food forest to expand on the already established pineapples, a dwarf banana, peach tree, and blueberry bushes. Wheel barrow and hose do not convey. Snapper ride-on mower is negotiable if prospective buyer is interested in purchasing it. Information believe to be correct but is not warranted, please inspect to your own satisfaction....
