Property Description

Modern Craftsman design meets relaxed lake-cottage living in this thoughtfully designed 4-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront home on highly sought-after Ideal Avenue, the name truly lives up to it. Set on a .3-acre lot with 50 feet of lakeshore, this Forest Lake property offers a well-balanced setting that combines lakefront living with a vibrant, established neighborhood feel. Inside, high ceilings and hardwood floors create a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both elevated and comfortable. The kitchen features a functional layout with an island and flows naturally into the surrounding living and dining spaces, anchored by a cozy fireplace—perfect for every Minnesota season. Large windows throughout the home invite in natural light and frame peaceful lake views. Outside, the lifestyle takes center stage. An expansive deck overlooks the water and is ideal for sunset dinners, morning coffee, or gathering with friends and family. The shoreline offers shallow, swimmable water, making it easy to enjoy the lake throughout the day. A welcoming front porch, detached two-stall garage, and recent exterior updates including new LP SmartSide siding and windows provide everyday ease and low-maintenance living. Located just off Highway 97, this home offers convenient access to town, schools, and everyday essentials while remaining part of an ideal neighborhood made up primarily of full-time residents. The neighborhood offers a one-mile walking route that adds to the lifestyle appeal, making it easy to enjoy the area on foot year-round. A rare opportunity to own a Forest Lake home with 50 feet of lakeshore that has been loved and cared for by the same family for 30 years.
