Welcome to this unique 3.4-acre lakefront retreat, fully renovated in 2024. Every detail has been meticulously updated, blending contemporary styles with elegant European touches to enhance the modern aesthetic. Located on Branch Lake, a pristine 3,000-acre glacial reservoir near Ellsworth, this estate offers unmatched tranquility.

The property features five spacious bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. The first-floor primary suite is a private haven with two walk-in closets, a luxurious bath with a soaking tub, and a private covered deck overlooking the lake.

The gourmet kitchen boasts a sunny window seating area, along with a striking black marble countertop. A covered deck offers seamless indoor-outdoor living. The finished basement features a large recreation room with a bathroom, perfect for entertainment or extra guest accommodations. Outside, the property shines with multiple decks, patios, and granite steps leading to the water. A private swimming area, large dock, and deep-water mooring provide easy lake access. An outdoor cedar sauna and wood-fired hot tub add a luxurious touch. The property includes a 1.6-acre waterfront lot, plus two adjacent lots (1.3 and 0.5 acres) across the road. Styled with a majority of new European furniture (indoor & outdoor), linens, dishes, and more, most of which convey with the house! This will make an easy, turnkey solution for this curated lake home. This property offers an unparalleled opportunity to enjoy lakefront living at its finest. Whether relaxing by the water or exploring the lake, this home is the perfect blend of elegance, convenience, and natural beauty.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
