Discover a legacy property where iconic craftsmanship, equestrian excellence, and lakeside living come together on 42.6 acres of diverse landscape. Designed by award-winning architect Eldon Morrison, this craftsman-style home is a rare blend of early 1980s architectural style and timeless quality--offering a lifestyle that's as rich and varied as the land itself.

Inside, you'll immediately notice the artistry that sets this home apart. Knotty pine walls, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and open railings create a grand and welcoming atmosphere. Mid-century modern windows frame panoramic views of School Lake's natural beauty. The two-story stone hearth surrounding the wood-burning fireplace is truly a showpiece, and integrated lighting in the exposed beams highlights just how ahead of its time this design really is. The flexible layout is perfect for age-in-place living or accommodating multi-generational families, ensuring comfort and accessibility for every stage of life. The main level features a spacious primary bedroom with its own private deck, walk-in closet, and a private 3/4 bath. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms with vaulted ceilings are separated by a cozy loft with built-in bookshelves, offering lake views and a perfect spot to relax or read. The walk-out lower level adds even more versatility, with an additional bedroom, a family room with a wood burning stove, and a library or office space--ideal for book lovers, musicians, or as a fun game area. Outside, at the heart of the farm, stands a 2,353 sq ft barn, designed with every need in mind. Five spacious horse stalls, a dedicated horse shower, tack and feed rooms, and a walk-up attic for storage make daily chores efficient and enjoyable. The oversized three-car garage accommodates vehicles and trailers, while the 40 x 23 open shelter behind the barn keeps livestock content and protected, no matter the season. This property is a haven for both horse and cattle enthusiasts. The varied landscape helps with pasture rotation, protecting the land's health and keeping your animals happy with plenty of grazing options. Blaze your own trails for riding or skiing, set out boating on the lake, or create the garden of your dreams--all without leaving your land.

As you approach via the long, private, tree-lined driveway, you'll feel the magic of a place built for gathering and making memories. Picture friends and family playing baseball in the meadow, riding horses at sunset, swimming in the lake, or four-wheeling for hours. With 1,843 feet of natural shoreline on School Lake, you can fish, kayak, or simply relax in your three-season porch or two lakeside decks.

The land is subdividable for future development or investment opportunities; please consult with the city for specific requirements if this is of interest. For 45 years, the current owners have cherished every moment here, raising animals and making memories with loved ones. Now, this rare estate awaits its next chapter-- someone ready to create their own legacy in a place where craftsmanship, nature, and recreation come together in perfect harmony.
