Bring your vision-and unlock the potential! This is the kind of property buyers wait for: a .44-acre corner lot in an exceptional Medicine Lake area location, directly across the street from the lake and surrounded by parks, trails, boating, and recreation. The home needs updating, but the opportunity here is undeniable. Built in 1969 and lovingly owned by the same owner ever since, this Contemporary split-level home offers a spacious floor plan and a fantastic setting for creating something truly special. With three bedrooms on one level, a primary suite featuring a walk-in tub, convenient upper-level laundry, a family room, and an amusement room, there is plenty of space to reimagine the interior and make it your own. Step outside and the location really shines. A walking path provides access to French Regional Park, a public boat launch is nearby, and East Medicine Lake Park is just a short walk away. Enjoy boating, beaches, trails, parks, and year round outdoor recreation practically at your doorstep. Easy access to Hwy 169 adds everyday convenience for commuting and getting around the Twin Cities. The generous .44-acre corner lot is another major highlight, offering room to create an incredible outdoor environment and potentially explore future improvements, subject to applicable regulations. Whether you're an investor, builder, remodeler, or buyer looking for a home where you can add your own sweat equity, this property offers possibilities that are increasingly hard to find in a location like this. This one is not turnkey-and that's the point. Bring your imagination, renovation plans, and vision for what this property could become. The home needs updating, but the location, lot, layout, and long-term ownership history provide a remarkable foundation for its next chapter. Opportunities to create value in a sought-after Medicine Lake setting don't come along often. Come see the possibilities and imagine what you can build here.
