WOW! Step into the extraordinary with this breathtaking, 3 bed/2 bath Nordic-style, cedar-shingled masterpiece. Nestled amidst nature’s Northwoods, the property commands a stunning 150' of Torch Lake frontage that leads into Portage Lake and onto Lake Superior -- the largest fresh-water lake in the world, offering an idyllic backdrop that will leave you in awe. This unique, high-quality architectural beauty was thoughtfully designed, blending a sense of rustic elegance with state-of-the-art modern amenities. The sprawling interior is bathed in natural light, casting a warm glow on the rich timber accents. The great room with a tongue & groove cathedral ceiling has a wall of windows overlooking the water. The master suite has a waterfront view, doors to an outdoor deck, and bathroom with a large, walk-in shower. The house offers a gourmet kitchen with Viking appliances, gas stove, custom cabinetry, farmer's sink, and limestone center island with prep sink. There is a screened-in, turret-shaped porch that can be fully enjoyed with comfort during three seasons. Other features in the home include: first-floor laundry with a full-sized Whirlpool washer and dryer, wide oak wood floors on the main floor, custom-designed from Vermont; cedar-lined closets with automatic lighting; expansive windows to the lake in every room; two stone fireplaces (one wood-burning, other gas); wine cooler fridge; carpeted lower-level; second bathroom with a jacuzzi bathtub; and a large walk-in, Fort Knox safe for securing valuables, hunting rifles or other. The lower floor offers a Finnish sauna to enjoy the full Northwoods experience, after a swim in the lake or after-ski. One of the other features that makes this property pure luxury is a custom bird's-eye maple office hand-done by World of Wood and other built-in cabinetry throughout, such as the expansive bookshelf in the lower sitting room.
