Welcome home to this charming waterfront retreat on the spring-fed shores of beautiful Balsam Lake! Tucked away in the highly sought-after Forest Hills School District and just minutes from the highway and Knapp's Corner, this location offers the perfect blend of peaceful lakeside living and convenient access to shopping, dining, and entertainment. Step out your back door to fish, paddle, kayak, or canoe, this is true up-north living just minutes from the city. The home features two main-level bedrooms, two cozy living spaces, and a dormer-style upper level with potential to expand (just add baseboard heat). Whether you're starting out, downsizing, or dreaming of building a future forever home, this property offers endless possibilities. With no HOA and .... million-dollar homes surrounding the area, it's an incredible opportunity to invest in your own slice of waterfront paradise. Enjoy the natural abundance of apple trees, raspberries, bass, pike, bluegill, deer, and turkey, right in your own backyard. Don't miss the chance to own this rare gem!
