    What's special

    Welcome to this truly one-of-a-kind estate with a guest house and hobby farm nestled on the serene shores of Howard Lake, just 30 minutes west of Ridgedale Mall. This extraordinary property offers the perfect blend of lakefront living, country charm, and modern comfort. Set on 4.7 acres of beautifully landscaped perennial gardens and mature trees for ultimate privacy, it features 118 feet of pristine lakeshore and breathtaking views from one of the highest points on the lake. The completely renovated main residence boasts over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, including a spacious main-level owner’s suite, gourmet kitchen, a cozy sunroom with stunning lake views, an indoor sauna, walk-out lower level and an open-concept floor plan ideal for entertaining. A covered breezeway connects the home to a 3-car detached garage. The charming original guesthouse has been completely updated and features an eat-in kitchen, living room, a main-level bedroom, plus a loft -perfect for guests, extended family, or short-term rental opportunities. At the heart of the property is the stunning 1890s barn, thoughtfully repurposed into a multi-functional space with a woodshop, machine shop, original stables and an artist’s studio, all while preserving its original open-air upper level. Additional features include a new roof, geothermal heating and cooling, a dock, chicken coop and abundant outdoor living spaces to enjoy year-round. Howard Lake is a fantastic recreational lake, perfect for enjoying all your favorite summer activities -boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and more. In the winter, the lake transforms into a wonderland for ice fishing, skating, and a variety of other cold-weather adventures. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special property that combines natural beauty, historic character, and modern amenities.
