Property Description

Some homes are built. Others are crafted. Set along 65 feet of shoreline on Ponto Lake, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home showcases a remarkable blend of natural materials, thoughtful design, and skilled workmanship. Nearly every room features distinctive details that make the home truly one of a kind. The kitchen is both beautiful and practical, featuring Minnesota Rainbow granite countertops, maple cabinetry, a five-burner gas stove, a wall pantry with cabinets and pull-out shelving, a built-in desk, and plenty of space for gathering around the peninsula. The peninsula is topped with a butcher block crafted from a blend of maple and hickory, adding another distinctive touch to the home's thoughtful design. In-floor heat extends throughout the entire main level. The great room draws your attention immediately with its soaring two-story wall of windows overlooking the lake and a floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace. Half-log accents, massive pine beams, and live-edge stair treads with whole-log railings and support posts create a warm and striking centerpiece that reflects the craftsmanship found throughout the home. The main-level owner's suite offers a black ash wood ceiling, a large walk-in closet, and a beautifully finished bath featuring dual hickory vanities and a granite walk-in shower designed for two. Upstairs, the loft features beautiful Bird's Eye maple flooring, while cedar-lined closets continue the home's attention to detail. One bedroom showcases birch accents and the other hickory accents, giving each space its own unique personality. A second bath with granite finishes serves the upper level. The thoughtful use of wood and stone throughout the home creates a sense of warmth and individuality, with each room offering its own distinctive details. Outside, a large maintenance-free wraparound deck includes a covered grilling area with lighting for evenings outdoors. Mature pines, oaks, and maples frame the property, while the fire pit area and gardens provide inviting spaces to relax and enjoy the setting. Across the lake, a backdrop of trees preserves the natural view, and northwest exposure brings beautiful sunsets that can be enjoyed through the great room's towering windows. Additional features include a heated and insulated three-car detached garage and a storage shed, providing plenty of room for vehicles, hobbies, and lake gear. This is a home where every material was chosen with purpose, every detail was thoughtfully considered, and every sunset reminds you why lake living is worth it.
