About This Home
Looking for a lakefront setting where your boat, trailer and RVs have a year-round place to stay, too? It's all right here on Upper Mission Lake, along with a lot more than one would ever expect, including an expansive house on 4.23 acres plus another 15.8 acres, complete with a multi-bay service shop, towering overhead doors, fenced gardens and more. It's the perfect setup for a car or boat collector, or a home-based mechanic or detailing business. Venture through the scenic, winding woods to what is aptly named Hoot Owl Point. A multi-bay service garage includes five separate service bays. And the sprawling home leaves no shortage of space for family and guests. Keep cool and entertained in the sprawling basement that includes a pool table and jukebox. The main level features a great living room with high-vaulted ceiling and convenient access to the kitchen. Three separate fireplaces ensure everyone will be warm in the winter, and a three-season porch lined with windows offers backyard and garden views with plenty of space for morning breakfast or afternoon reading while the sun beams in. A fully natural shoreline with native shrubs and lilies keeps the wildlife on display while a neighboring easement ensures that new homeowners have their own dock and easy lake access. Bring everything you have and more. There's plenty of room at Hoot Owl Point!
