Listing details for 20687 212th Ave NW, Big Lake, MN 55309 : The pictures do not do this home justice. You will fall in love with the special features of this wooded property on a quiet street. We start with a natural pond, watching the ducks, deer, birds, and all their new families, as they visit the water, coming up to dry off and sun. The current owners built this home 30 years ago, and have lovingly added hundreds of trees & plants, to get it where it is today. Then you access the 2 acres on the other side of the pond which are reached by walking or 4 wheeling across your private bridge where they have groomed trails making it possible to take nature walks and camp out enjoying your own nirvana without ever leaving home. Walking the trails will also give you a broad view of Wood Lake The home includes an elevated deck that will give you hours of enjoyment watching and listening to your paradise. Inside the home includes a floor-to-ceiling knotty pine 4-season room, which provides amazing views of a variety of wildlife as they visit the water, and the various homes of the wildlife throughout the property. A free-standing cast iron wood stove greets you in the vaulted front room, which the owners use to heat the home, and gas forced air as a supplement. A well appointed large kitchen will make you want to cook and bake. There is one bedroom on the main level next to the 3/4 bath, with 3 bedrooms upstairs. The finished basement has added living space with tons of character on the walls with locally milled tongue-and-groove oak planks. The 30x40 detached garage provides plenty of storage. End your day in the beautiful outdoors by relaxing on the paver patio complete with a natural gas granite boulder fire pit. Seriously, you need to come look, there is too much to list.
