Custom Built Country Home Now Reduced to $199,900

This is a newer one and one-half story frontier-style country home and two-car garage on a 1.55 acre lot. Located close to many Northwoods amenities, it lies 1/2 mile from beautiful Round Lake (two miles to public access for boating and fishing), five miles from two major trailheads of the famous American Birkebeiner ski trail, and even nearer other popular snowmobile and hiking trails. Enjoy proximity to quality Sawyer County recreational attractions and the city of Hayward (seven miles) at reasonable property tax rates. This "stick-built" home constructed in 2000 features six-inch insulated walls throughout; nine-foot ceilings in the greatroom, kitchen and dining room; a whirlpool tub and separate shower in the bathroom/vanity area off the master bedroom; and a Vermont Castings woodstove on the main floor to supplement its forced-air heating system. The two upstairs bedrooms and bathroom are heated (or not, if so-desired) with electric baseboard heating for economy. A full basement includes an additional partially-finished 4th bedroom/office/game room and bathroom along with ample storage and utility areas. Nestled strategically among the lot's tall pines, a 252 square-foot front porch facing southeast and a 132 square-foot west-oriented rear deck enhance indoor comfort as well as outdoor use of this property yearlong. The area's Residential-Recreational-1 zoning helps protect its rural character, and its wooded circle drive servicing a dozen or so other large-lot homes creates a quiet and safe environment. For those wishing additional private acreage, the lot immediately to the north is currently available from a different owner.
