Welcome to your private retreat in the heart of the Brainerd Lakes Area. Nestled on 4.23 wooded acres, this beautifully updated home offers deeded access to Sorenson Lake, a private lake with no public access. With 30 feet of frontage, you can enjoy your own dock, add a boat lift, and spend endless days on the water in peace and quiet.
Inside, the home features an open floor plan with a cozy fireplace, wood stove, 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms, with space to easily add a third bedroom if desired. The interior was recently updated, and both the furnace and AC unit are only two years old, ensuring modern comfort and efficiency.
The property comes fully furnished – including furniture, bedding, dishes, and utensils – with only a few select personal items that the seller will retain, allowing you to move in and immediately start enjoying lakes area living.
The treed driveway and mature woods provide ultimate privacy and abundant wildlife sightings. An oversized heated garage offers plenty of space for vehicles, toys, and tools, while fiber internet keeps you connected for work or streaming.
Located close to bike and snowmobile trails, this property is ideal for year-round recreation. Experience the tranquility of a natural setting combined with the convenience of modern updates, all within minutes of everything the Brainerd Lakes Area has to offer.
