Lakefront Paradise on Shell Lake – 5BR/3BA Retreat on 4.4 Acres with Three Living Levels
Welcome to your private oasis on the shores of Shell Lake! Nestled on 4.4 wooded acres with 465 feet of pristine lakefront, this spacious and well-maintained home offers nearly 3,000 finished square feet of flexible lakeside living in the heart of Becker County.
Designed across three functional levels, the home includes one bedroom on the upper level, three bedrooms on the lower level, and a large converted bunkroom with a full bath on the main level—perfect for guests, gatherings, or multigenerational use. The open living area features a 14x22 living room and a stylish kitchen with stainless steel appliances, center island, and a generous dining space.
Downstairs, enjoy three well-sized bedrooms, a full bathroom, laundry, and utility rooms for all your storage needs. One of the lower-level bedrooms—an expansive 15x25 suite—features a cozy gas fireplace, making it a perfect second primary or private guest retreat. Recent updates include engineered wood siding, a newer roof (8 years or less), central air, propane forced air heat, and fiber optic internet.
Outside, unwind on your porch or patio while soaking up peaceful lake views. The 24x40 detached garage is heated and insulated—great for vehicles, boats, and lake gear. Additional outbuildings include a heated shed with bathroom, a rustic cabin, and a guest house that's ready for your finishing touches—ideal for renovation into a private retreat, rental, or studio space.
Enjoy level elevation to the lake and a gravel-bottom shoreline perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating. Located in the Frazee-Vergas school district and close to Osage with easy access to Hwy 34.
