Wake up to sunrise glittering across Serpent Lake from this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom (potential 3rd), 3-bathroom year-round home, perfectly positioned on 101 feet of east-facing shoreline. With 0.56 acres and a layout designed to soak in every lake view, this property delivers the full up-north experience without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Step inside and you're greeted by a soaring vaulted great room anchored by a real brick fireplace — the kind of room that makes you pause and take it all in. Rich hardwood floors stretch beneath your feet while oversized Pella windows frame panoramic lake views, flooding the space with natural light. Just off the great room, a 16x12 tongue-and-groove 3 season porch invites you to sip your morning coffee with the water as your backdrop. Outdoors, 318 square feet of composite decking means you spend your weekends entertaining, not staining. The nicely manicured lawn overlooks the gentle slope to the water — an ideal setup for summer barbecues, gathering around the firepit, or simply unwinding after a day on the lake. Storage is never an issue here: a 2-stall garage handles the vehicles and toys, while three additional sheds give you room for all the gear that lake life demands. Major mechanicals are dialed in — the roof, furnace, and water heater are all less than 7 years old, so you can focus on making memories instead of maintenance. Serpent Lake spans over 1,100 acres and is one of the most sought-after lakes in the Cuyuna Range. Known for crystal-clear water and exceptional fishing, it's home to walleye, northern pike, largemouth/smallmouth bass, and panfish. Boating, swimming, and year-round recreation is right out your back door. Minutes from the charming communities of Crosby and Deerwood, and just over 20 minutes to Brainerd, you're never far from dining, shopping, and amenities. Even closer: the nationally acclaimed Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area, where world-class mountain biking trails, paddling, and hiking await. This is the one — a Serpent lake home on premier shoreline, priced and positioned to move. Schedule your private showing today.
