Welcome to true Forest Lake lifestyle - without the lakefront price tag. Located on the private channel frontage, you get the same boat, the same dock, and the same 2,200-acre playground of open water just a short ride from your slip. This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home sits on over 3,500 finished square feet in a quiet, low-traffic neighborhood. The main level is built for entertaining - open-concept layout, vaulted knotty pine ceilings, and a sunroom-living room anchored by a fieldstone fireplace, all looking out over the backyard and a river rock path that leads down to your private dock. Upstairs are three bedrooms including a primary ensuite, plus two bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath. Every bedroom faces the main body of water, catching sunrises or sunsets over the lake. The finished lower level adds a fourth bedroom, a large family room, and flexible space that works as a home office or gym. Quartz counters, new flooring and carpet, stainless steel appliances, high-efficiency mechanicals, and protected window glass. The attached three-car garage and two storage sheds handle the cars, the boat, and every lake toy you've collected. Channel ownership comes with significantly lower taxes, no shoreline restoration, and a fraction of the annual maintenance. You get the lake lifestyle - without the lake-house second job! Walk down to your dock. Light the bonfire. Head out for a sunset cruise. This is the lake life, done smarter.
