Nestled on the serene northwest shore of Straits Lake, this enchanting cottage offers the ultimate blend of privacy, comfort, and natural beauty. Surrounded by 180 acres of pristine, all-sports lakefront, the property boasts a stunning view of the island and a unique setting with water on one side and a wooded hill on the other—ensuring complete seclusion with no neighbors in sight. Thoughtfully updated from the early 2000s to today, the home features a custom kitchen adorned with rich maple cabinetry, abundant storage, a spacious pantry, and elegant engineered wood floors. The primary bedroom includes a private ensuite, while the guest room opens to a deck with a relaxing hot tub—perfect for unwinding under the stars. A grand wood-burning fireplace anchors the cozy living room, inviting warm gatherings year-round. Outside, a collection of charming outbuildings—including a boathouse, workshop, fish shed, and a peaceful gazebo—enhance the lifestyle, offering spaces for hobbies, morning coffee, or quiet reading. With a two-car detached garage and a massive 4+ car pole building, there’s room for all your toys and tools. Whether you're seeking a tranquil retreat or an active lakeside haven, this property is a rare gem that delivers both.
