Whether you're dreaming of either opening an Airbnb or running a business out of your home, this property is full of possibilities as it has previously been granted a Conditional Use Permit from the Village of Balsam Lake. Located in a progressive small town that's all charm and no fuss, you will be just steps away from the Balsam Lake public landing, a craft brewery, and many restaurants. This unconventional charmer stands out in the best possible way-strong bones, a low-maintenance frame, and a flat roof that's as practical as it is wallet-friendly. Inside, high ceilings on the main floor offer room to breathe- and think big. The separate entrance and additional bathroom just off the living area would provide the space for your business, crafting studio, rental suite, or the ultimate workshop haven. Outside, the mature perennial gardens are more than landscaping- they're a bird-watcher's paradise and provide a front-row seat to nature's quiet theater- viewable right from your cozy window's seat. Whether you are nesting, investing, or manifesting a life that blends creativity and community- the real magic is tucked away behind an unassuming facade- like a plain book cover obscuring a fantastic story. Winters will be a breeze with an attached 2 car garage and very little driveway to plow. Other features include stainless steel appliances, cedar closets, creative wall murals, and new vinyl plank flooring. Less than 1 hour from the Twin Cities. Come check this one out!
