"Lake Forest Cabin" is a stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath timber frame retreat perched at the edge of a serene, 3-acre stocked lake on 12.26 acres of land. Nestled at the end of a quiet, county-maintained road bordered by Brown County State Park and Sycamore Land Trust. This property holds a special exception for overnight tourist rental, making it a turnkey opportunity for both personal enjoyment and income-generating potential - approved for up to 8 guests. Inside, the main level boasts soaring ceilings, rich hickory hardwood and ceramic tile flooring, and breathtaking lake views through expansive windows that flood the space with natural light. The master suite and a second bedroom offer comfort and privacy, while the spacious kitchen - featuring cherry cabinetry, a center island with seating, and ample granite countertop space - is ideal for entertaining. The great room's gas-log fireplace and adjacent dining area create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while the sunroom provides a peaceful spot to unwind. A full-length deck spans the lake side of the home, offering panoramic views and plenty of room for outdoor dining or relaxation. Custom ironwork railings lead you to the finished walk-out lower level, where you'll find two additional bedrooms, a generous recreation and family room with wet bar, a full bath with double vanities, and several versatile bonus and storage rooms. Step out to the covered lower-level patio and enjoy the private hot tub. Efficiency and comfort come together with a lake-looped geothermal HVAC system, two tankless water heaters, dual 200-amp electric panels, and high-speed fiber optic internet. The home also includes numerous handicap-accessible features, ensuring ease of access for all. As an added opportunity, the adjoining property at 468 Upper Schooner Rd - also a licensed tourist rental - is available for purchase (See BLC #22037147 for details.)
