RARE and QUIRKY this unusual property is not for the faint of heart. Yet there are so many possibilities and uses. Approximately 400 feet of water-frontage located on the widest part of the Portage Canal across from Oscar bay. This property has been in the seller’s family since 1967 and has been used as a primary residence for most of that time. The original cabin was built in 1920 and features a large eat-in kitchen (9x17), living room (8x17) and ¾ bath on the main floor with 2 bedrooms (9x12) & (11x13) and an outside entrance on the second floor. This would make a super AIRBNB or rental unit. An addition was added in the 80’s (room sizes above). The addition is attached to the cabin but has no inside access, it is accessed from the large deck which overlooks the waterfront. This area features a large kitchen, with pantry, living room with great views of water, main floor bedroom and bath. The second floor has a nice bedroom with closet. There is a full walkout basement with updated electrical, the cabin and addition have separate electrical meters, 2007 propane furnace, and laundry area. The waterfront has been ravaged by the high water, yet there is a new dock at one end of the property. The original hand-hewn log sauna is just steps from the water and there is a storage area attached to the sauna. Just off the road is parking and an additional storage area and a garage space that can accommodate a small car. A driveway was added to west side of the property making for off road parking and easy access to the house. Enjoy the eagles that nest nearby on the patio, deck or dock along with all the other views, sunsets and wildlife that this waterway provides. Estimated acreage and frontage are based on tax assessment records. These are only estimates.
