Overview

Description

Enjoy the perfect Northwoods escape on pristine Barnum Lake. 2.75 acres with over 500 feet of shoreline in the heart of the Chippewa National Forest. This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath home offers exceptional year-round living with thoughtful finishes and classic lake country charm. Interior highlights include an inviting wood-burning fireplace, custom granite countertops, a relaxing sauna, newer drilled well with a reverse osmosis water system, and an airy screened porch overlooking the water. The open living spaces and well-appointed bedrooms create a comfortable retreat for family and guests. Barnum Lake is a private, clear-water lake and an excellent fishery for bass, northern, and panfish, ideal for boating and fishing. The property feels like a wilderness sanctuary—abundant wildlife and total privacy—yet is located between Longville and Hackensack for convenient access to services and shopping. Can be sold turn-key, including a pontoon with a newer four-stroke motor, this home is a rare find on a tranquil, high-quality lake. Schedule a showing to experience this hidden gem for yourself!
