Description
There’s something special about arriving at the lake and feeling the pace of life shift. Tucked among beautiful mature trees along the peaceful shoreline of Barnum Lake near Hackensack, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom year-round home offers privacy, natural light, and a setting designed for making memories in every season.
Step into the home and you’re welcomed by a spacious living room anchored by a beautiful fireplace — a warm and inviting focal point for gathering on cool evenings. Large windows fill the space with natural light while framing serene lake views. Just a few steps up, the dining area features its own oversized window, creating a bright and cheerful space for everyday meals or hosting friends and family.
The spacious primary bedroom offers large windows and abundant natural light, creating a calm and restful retreat. Three additional bedrooms provide comfortable space for family or guests, while two dedicated office areas offer flexibility for remote work, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Main-floor laundry adds convenience, and the unfinished basement presents opportunity to expand and personalize over time.
Outside, usable yard space extends from the home toward the lake, making it easy to enjoy time outdoors. Spend your days fishing or boating, then return to grill on the patio and gather as the sun begins to set. Evenings can be spent relaxing in the hot tub, unwinding in the sauna, or enjoying a quiet fire by the water under the Northwoods sky.
A three-car detached garage provides generous storage for vehicles, tools, and lake gear. Located near the Paul Bunyan State Trail and Goose Lake Ski Trail, and just minutes from the shops, dining, and community events of Hackensack, this property offers a balance of seclusion and recreation. If you’ve been searching for a private lake setting where summer days turn into sunset evenings and every season brings its own beauty, this Barnum Lake home is ready to welcome you.
