The home
About this home
LAND AND LAKEFRONT ON WALLACE POND - Buy your own Sanctuary. Peace and quiet come with owning this 6.17 acre lakefront property with a canal and small pond. How unique to have a Chalet on a lake that is shared with the Canadians on the northern shore. Super cute vacation or permanent home where you can relax by the very impressive primary fireplace or out on the deck, down by the firepit or in some Adirondack chairs by the lake. You have views over the lake to the mountains in Canada. Dining options also available with the dinette, dining room and deck depending on your mood. The chalet has a primary bed room off the kitchen and spacious bath. Downstairs is additional sleeping quarters and Den/Game room. And with a covered patio downstairs, even some drizzle won't stop you from enjoying the wide open spaces and lake view. You will be amazed by all the wildlife that will become part of your life. This can be yours to share. Additional land parcels available.
