LAKE LIFE, ELEVATED. Tucked among mature trees on a beautifully landscaped one-acre lot at Lake Sakakawea, this impressive log home offers the kind of setting that feels more like a private mountain retreat than a North Dakota lake property. From the moment you turn onto the tree-lined driveway, the surroundings set the tone with privacy, natural beauty, timeless craftsmanship, and the lake waiting just beyond the trees. A welcoming covered front porch leads into a home filled with the warmth and character only true log construction can provide. Timber walls, substantial exposed beams, six-panel wood doors, and wood flooring create an authentic lodge atmosphere, while soaring cathedral ceilings and expansive windows bring natural light and incredible lake views into the heart of the home. The great room is anchored by a stone fireplace, creating the perfect gathering place after a day on the water. Large windows frame the scenery and connect the interior to the expansive wraparound deck overlooking Lake Sakakawea which is an incredible setting for morning coffee, summer entertaining, or long fall evenings surrounded by the changing colors of the season. Open to the great room, the dining area and kitchen make entertaining effortless while keeping everyone connected. The kitchen complements the character of the home with tile flooring, abundant cabinetry, and a full appliance package already in place. The main-level primary suite provides its own bath featuring a walk-in shower and a claw-foot tub. Main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience, along with a half bath located near the back entrance. From here, another covered porch faces south, providing yet another place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. A beautiful log staircase leads to the upper level where an open loft overlooks the great room and captures views through the home's upper windows toward the lake. Whether used for a game table, reading area, home office, or additional gathering space, it is a special part of the home's design. Two additional bedrooms and a ¾ bath complete the upper level, with wood flooring continuing the warm lodge aesthetic. The fully finished walkout lower level adds another generous dimension to the home. An expansive family and recreation room provides plenty of room for entertaining, games, movie nights, or additional sleeping accommodations. Patio doors open directly to the outdoor patio and grounds. This level also includes a ¾ bath, a spacious nonconforming bedroom currently offering enough room for two full-size bunk beds, and a mechanical room with storage possibilities. The setting outside is every bit as impressive as the home itself. Mature trees and established landscaping surround the property, while a dedicated firepit area creates the perfect place to gather under the stars. A storage shed provides space for the equipment and lake-life essentials, and the detached three-stall garage carries the log construction through to the exterior buildings, beautifully complementing the architecture of the home. Best of all, the home is being offered fully furnished, making this an exceptional opportunity to begin enjoying Lake Sakakawea without waiting for someday. Arrive with your bags, settle in, and experience the fall season at the lake from a property that already feels established, private, and complete. This is more than a lake home; it is a destination waiting for you.
