Overview

Description

Build Your Primary Residence — 1-Acre No-Wake Lake Lot with Walkout Potential Rare opportunity to own a full acre on a peaceful no-wake lake, offering the kind of quiet water access that's getting harder to find. This lot sits on the east side of the lake with 147 feet of frontage, giving future owners front-row seats to stunning sunset views over the water every evening. The property is fully cleared and ready to build, with meaningful elevation change across the lot — ideal for a walkout basement design that maximizes lake views and living space. Major groundwork is already done: a well is in place and the lot has been perked and approved for a septic field, saving you time, money, and uncertainty in the permitting process.
