Property Description

Welcome home to this beautiful Big Lake four-level split, which means real rooms instead of one big echoing box. Five bedrooms. Four levels. Three garage stalls. Almost an acre of trees and privacy. And a fire pit with swings. 2,477 finished square feet spread across five bedrooms, two full baths, and levels that each have their own personality. Start at the front door. The foyer greets you with a built-in bench and storage, which seems like a small thing until you realize it ends the daily argument about where the shoes go. A few steps away is the open kitchen you will love. Every stainless appliance went in new in 2023: French door refrigerator, gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, and a wine fridge tucked in for good measure. Counter space is generous, cabinets are everywhere, and the center island is on wheels — prep station when you're cooking, table when you're eating. Brand new vinyl plank flooring runs across the entire main level, installed in 2026. The kitchen flows into the dining area, where the ceiling vaults and a gas fireplace with brick surround takes the edge off a Minnesota February. Just beyond it is the four-season porch, knotty pine wood floor to ceiling — the kind of room that feels like a cabin and somehow becomes everyone's favorite spot by the second visit. It opens onto a 16x12 deck to enjoy the private backyard. Upstairs there is new carpet throughout, the living room has a bay window that catches light all afternoon. Two bedrooms on this level, the primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and a walk-through to the full bath, which also got new vinyl plank flooring. Downstairs is where the house gets cozy. The family room has a wood-burning stove — actual fire, actual heat, actual reason to be down there in January. Three more bedrooms on the lower levels, including one with a great walk-in closet. The full bath down here was remodeled in 2025 and it shows: soaking tub with tile surround, new vanity with granite top, and a tile floor. The laundry area has a new combination washer/dryer in one and a utility sink, one of those things you don't appreciate until you have it. And there's one more flex room that can be a sixth bedroom, an office, a gym, or whatever your heart desires. Outside is the part that sells itself. Almost an acre — 0.86 — with mature trees and a full privacy fence. Private and quiet, with a custom fire pit with swings, so summer nights pretty much plan themselves. The 20x10 storage shed has dual lofts, which means the mower, the bikes, and all the totes have somewhere to live. The three-stall garage is insulated, so projects don't have to wait for April. A huge paver patio sits out front to enjoy. Then the unglamorous list, which is the one that actually matters: 2026 - New Vinyl Plank Flooring, 2025 - New A/C, 2025 – Remodeled Bathroom, 2024 - New Roof & Siding, 2023 – New Appliances, 2022 – New Carpet, 2022 - New Pressure Tank, 2019 - New Well Pump. The owner stayed on top of this place, and you get to be the one who benefits! Come see it before somebody else does, schedule your private showing today!
