About This Home

• Beautiful turn-key lakefront residence on one of Minnesota’s most sought after lake chains. • Numerous updates throughout – over $400,000 in 2024-2026 - including new roof, windows, carpeting and select appliances - see supplements for list of improvements. • At the end of Old Whiskey Road on a quiet cul-de-sac, this full log home sits on 100 feet of Lower Whitefish shoreline with a sandy bottom, gradual approach, and 6 miles of unobstructed east-facing views that stretch across the Whitefish Chain. Plenty of light pours in all day. • The great room centers on a ceiling-height river rock stone fireplace with vaulted ceilings, intricate log railings, and stone floors that carry through the main level. Oversized lakeside windows and dormers flood the space with natural light in a way most log homes never achieve. Professionally decorated with rustic cabin touches throughout, it feels open, warm, and nothing like what you'd expect from the outside. • The kitchen opens directly to the great room with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, an AGA Elise Series Classic Color Collection double oven, and a dedicated bar and prep area built for entertaining. Two guest bedrooms and a three-quarter bath round out the main level. • Off the kitchen and dining room is a vaulted ceiling sun room with panoramic views of the lake. • The upper-level primary suite includes its own three-quarter bath along with a private deck featuring spectacular lake views. The walk-out lower level adds a full living area, a third guest suite, and a bunk room - all oriented toward the water. Including the bunk room, the property comfortably sleeps 11. • Outside, you will find a recently upgraded deck, new railings and stone steps which drop from the professionally-landscaped yard to the new stairs down to a level shoreline plateau and dock access. The new aluminum and vinyl dock has a sitting area with built-in seating and a ladder from the lake. • Elsewhere, split stone exterior accents carry the same craftsmanship from the inside out. The property also boasts a beautiful paver stone driveway. • This is a turn-key lakefront property on the renowned Whitefish Chain - with the shoreline, light, and character that are genuinely hard to find.
