Property Description

148 Feet of Sandy Cross Lake Shoreline | Whitefish Chain of Lakes | Crosslake, MN This 3-bedroom Cross Lake lake home in Crosslake, MN offers a rare chance to own 148 feet of pristine sandy shoreline on the Whitefish Chain of Lakes, with crystal-clear, swimmable water, a hard sand bottom and a quiet no-wake setting that creates an exceptional environment for swimming, paddle boarding, relaxing at the beach and enjoying the lake without constant heavy boat traffic. Designed by a Honeywell engineer and built in 1968-1969, the classic chalet-style home was intentionally positioned remarkably close to the water, creating panoramic lake views from the living spaces, expansive lakeside windows and wraparound redwood decking in a location that would be extremely difficult to recreate under today's shoreline setbacks. The home has been exceptionally well built and carefully maintained, offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2,054 finished square feet of authentic Northwoods character, including exposed beams, two brick fireplaces, warm original woodwork and an immediate connection to the lake from nearly every primary gathering space. Step outside and the lifestyle becomes the story: a beautifully maintained lawn with an in-ground sprinkler system leads directly to the sandy beach, while the protected position of the shoreline offers calmer water and may provide the flexibility to leave the dock in place from year to year depending on ice conditions and owner preference. The property's location within Crosslake is equally difficult to duplicate. A paved walking and biking trail is accessible right at the entrance to Brookwood Circle, while dining, golf and recreation are only minutes away, including The Wharf at roughly five minutes and Manhattan Beach Lodge, Norway Ridge and Old Milwaukee Club at approximately eight minutes, with Deacon's Lodge and Breezy Point also nearby. By boat, the entire Whitefish Chain becomes your backyard, with miles of connected water, restaurants, sandbars, fishing and recreation, while the home's protected setting gives you a quieter place to return to at the end of the day. When Independence Day arrives, the property is also perfectly positioned for a front-row view of Crosslake's celebrated Fourth of July fireworks from your own shoreline. Enjoy this Cross Lake lake home in Crosslake, MN exactly as it stands today, thoughtfully update it while preserving its mid-century chalet character, expand over time, or explore a future custom lake estate. Whatever direction you choose, the irreplaceable asset remains the same: 148 feet of premium Cross Lake sand, clear water, protected shoreline, remarkable proximity to the lake and a location where virtually everything that defines the Whitefish Chain lifestyle is close at hand. This is not simply a cabin on the lake. It is the kind of Cross Lake setting that can become a legacy property for generations.
