Here's a Northwoods retreat people dream about but rarely find. This handcrafted log home on Farm Lake wraps you in warmth the moment you walk in — over 2,400 sq ft, wrapped in timber and sunlight. The main level is designed for togetherness: new custom kitchen cabinets, quartz countertops, a comfortable dining area, and a living room anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove. Two bedrooms & a full bath complete this level. Head up to the 700+ sq ft loft, with soaring ceilings, built-ins, and sweeping views make the space feel tucked-away and inspiring an artist’s nook or simply reading a book while the pines sway outside your window. The walk-out level is its own retreat, featuring the Primary Suite, a utility/laundry room, and a rec room made for hosting. Private woods take you to the 220 ft of shoreline. Incredible view from the custom built 100 ft perm newer dock, complete with benches and a kayak step, makes slipping into the lake a breeze Best of all the BWCA is just a paddle away.
