Best Oceanfront On The Market?

Side by side lots with over 420’ of walk-on oceanfront overall plus minus 1.3 acres. Main home is approximately 3,000 sq ft with four bedrooms plus a 1,200 sq ft sun room. One of the large fireplaces is imported Brazilian petrified wood - also the electrical service that was installed here should operate a hotel. The smaller residence on the 2nd lot is also walk-on waterfront. Granted the homes could use some updating/improvements however oceanfront properties of this calibre only become available “Once in a Blue Moon”. Welcome to 3925 and 3921 Evening Cove Road with an asking price of $1,590,000.

Unique log home

Open floor plan

Norse Log Home On 20 Acres

In my 36 years in Real Estate, this is one of the best log homes I have ever seen. Basically all 12” Douglas Fir construction with a very open floor plan. Thanks to all the windows and the 22’ ceilings over the Great Room, you have an abundance of natural light. The extra large kitchen with tile flooring should accommodate anyone’s requirements. Even the bath on the main is extra large by most standards. The split log stairway takes you to the upper main bedroom. From here you over look and fully appreciate the iopen concept. Situated at 3210 Jinglepot Road with a realistic price of $869,000.

Custom designed & lake views from all rooms

Property offers total privacy

Very Special Lakefront Acreage

This specially designed home fronts on Michael Lake with 6.8 acres and is a bird waters Paradise. From the hundreds of Trumpeter Swans to the dozens of species of birds seldom found elsewhere (ie: Wood Ducks, Western Grebe, Black Headed Gros Break, etc.). In addition any avid horticulturist would be proud to call this home. Check out what 15 years of careful planning has created. Species of plants like the Giant Myesli Rose Tree, the Gunnera plan with 5’ leaves and the literally thousands of Ferns just to give you a sampling. If you have been searching for tranquillity, maybe you’ve just found it? Please note a 2nd residence is permitted. Offering price of 4614 Wyndlow Drive is $795,000.
