Nestled on the east side of pristine Lake Edward, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers over 2,000 finished square feet of warm, inviting living space on nearly 2.5 acres with 165 feet of lake frontage—and some of the most spectacular sunset views you'll ever experience. The main level welcomes you with an open kitchen and dining area and a striking fireplace that anchors the living area, creating the perfect setting for cozy evenings. The expansive owner's suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private bath and a wood burning stove. The walk-out basement extends your living space with an additional bedroom, bath, and laundry—ideal for guests or family. Step outside and soak it all in. A wonderful 3 season porch facing the lake offers a bug-free spot to take in the sights and sounds of lake life, while the expansive decks provide the perfect setting for grilling, entertaining, and watching the sun dip below the horizon in brilliant color. Outside, the expansive yard offers plenty of space for all ages to enjoy, with ample room to grow and an easy layout for adding a garage down the road. At the lake, a charming boardwalk leads you straight to the shoreline, making lake access a breeze. Lake Edward is renowned for its sandy lake bottom and outstanding fishing—both summer and ice fishing alike. When the snow flies, miles of snowmobile trails are accessible right out your door, making this a true four-season retreat. And when you're ready to explore beyond the lake, you're just minutes from some of the most sought-after destinations in the Brainerd Lakes Area—Nisswa, Crosslake, Brainerd, and the Cuyuna Country Recreation Area. Whether it's shopping, dining, mountain biking, or simply exploring, there's no shortage of things to do and see, even on rainy days at the lake. If you've been dreaming of a home on one of the area's most beloved lakes, this is the one. Schedule your private showing today.
