Its thoughtful layout offers privacy and functionality, featuring: Private Master Suite + Two Additional Bedrooms Above the Garage; Main-Level Bedroom + Office/Den; and Lower Level with 5th Bedroom, Family Room, Laundry & Storage. Stay cozy and energy-efficient year-round with a highly efficient wood-burning furnace and newer Lennox heat pump/AC. And with NO COVENANTS, the possibilities are endless—make it your full-time residence or a lucrative short-term rental--or both! Sellers have rented out for Sturgis Rally for years. Outdoor highlights are wraparound Deck with spectacular views, garden space, abundant wildlife, treed lot and minutes to Sylvan Lake. Recent updates include new exterior paint (2023); new roof (2024), all new windows, new water heater, new well pump, couple of newly installed doors & Lennox Heat Pump is only five years old. A home with this much character, history & beauty is a rare find!
