Property Description

Step back in time and experience the charm of this classic 1946 lakefront cottage, where timeless character meets relaxed, easy living. Nestled among mature trees, this inviting retreat features a stunning lakeside sunroom lined with windows—perfect for morning coffee, evening sunsets, and everything in between. Inside, you’ll find warm knotty pine walls, a cozy stone fireplace, and comfortable gathering spaces that create an authentic ‘up north’ feel. Thoughtful vintage details throughout blend seamlessly with the home’s natural setting, offering a true getaway from the everyday. Whether you’re enjoying peaceful lake views, hosting family and friends, or simply unwinding by the fire, this charming cottage captures the essence of classic cabin living. This is some of the finest shoreline on Lake Carlos, part of Alexandria's Chain of Lakes. 100 feet of shoreline with .48 of an acre. Enjoy the cabin or purchase it for your future build project. The property also features the footprint of an old boathouse—offering a rare opportunity to rebuild and create the ultimate lakeside hangout, bunkhouse, or storage for all your water toys on the same footprint. Whether you choose to embrace the vintage cottage as-is or envision building your dream lake home, this is a special opportunity to own a piece of lake history in an unbeatable location. Classic charm, incredible shoreline, and endless potential—this is lake life the way it was meant to be!
