Thoughtfully presenting, Stone House on the Lake, a timepiece estate and carriage house sitting on 1.76 acres, with more than 400 feet of shoreline on Mille Lacs Lake. The amount of history and craftsmanship that went into creating this estate, is so phenomenal and rare to find. The home's stone exterior was hand-masoned from stones pulled up from the lake itself. From the 100+ "heart" stones that were carefully hidden around the exterior, to the history of this property being the very first off-site bank record storage location during the Cold War, featuring 3' thick solid foundation walls, bomb-proof hidden vault, and gun-proof windows in the basement - now turned wine cellar - this estate has such rich character. This property features an expansive, structurally engineered lakeside patio and fire-pit that are designed to host many guests, events, and withstand the beauty of the lake's powerful waves.  If you're looking for an iconic home, or a commercial/rental opportunity, this gem of a home comes with an established commercial Airbnb and VRBO business presence, and lengthy 5-star reviewed guest book. This home has hosted weddings, anniversaries, and award-winning tournament fishing teams/families. Inside features that you won't be able to replicate include: vaulted and hand-carved beam ceilings, original stone fireplaces, original restored French windows, original pegged oak hardwood floors, high-end commercial-grade kitchen appliances, French doors, and custom finishes that were curated across the world. The primary suite is its own entire haven - featuring its own wood-burning fireplace, and an absolutely jaw-dropping ensuite bathroom that leads you through to a private workout or flex room, and primary laundry. Cozy up in the family cabin room, spread out in the upper level bunk room, or host events in the many outdoor gardens. The carriage house or guest house works perfect as an office or studio with a bathroom, gathering spaces on two levels, laundry, an extra garage space and garden storage. This separate additional dwelling unit offers potential for it's new owner to have onsite home or health care, rental income, or just an additional space for entertaining guests during their stays. The attached oversized attached 3-car garage is perfect for storing cars, boats, and toys.  Mille Lacs is not only one of Minnesota's largest lakes with 132,500-acres, stocked with the trophy-size fish, and has a history of hosting renowned fishing tournaments and people who travel nationwide to compete and spend both winters and summers here. Bassmaster named Mille Lacs Lake in their top 10 calling it a “small mouth paradise”. Walleye, muskie and northern pike are also on their top species category.  This is the type of home that stays passed down within your family for many generations, and doesn't come available to the market. The current owners have taken pride in how much love, care, and restoration has gone into this property over the past 40+ years. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, a once in a lifetime estate, and truly one of the most special pieces of history that cannot be replicated in Minnesota.
