Standing gracefully along Lake Avenue, one of White Bear Lake’s most storied streets, its oldest home is now available to be a part of your legacy and is a rare opportunity to own a restored gem on the shores of one of the Twin Cities' most cherished lakes. Set gracefully on a spacious corner lot, this distinguished residence offers over 100 feet of prime lakefront with a fairly effortless elevation—no tram needed. One of the property's many unique features is a charming beachside screen house, taking lakefront entertaining to a new level, with the luxury of outdoor enjoyment free from mosquitoes. Imagine waking up to stunning sunrises and evenings taking in glorious moonrises, with nearly all rooms providing panoramic lake views. Every season offers its own delight, from summer days filled with kayaking, sailing, and waterskiing to winter fun with ice skating, hockey, and the excitement of the Special Olympics Polar Plunge—or perhaps, your own private cold plunge. This home is wonderfully located within the highly sought-after neighborhood of “Old White Bear,” offering an idyllic walkable lifestyle just a few blocks from downtown White Bear Lake’s many offerings, including the farmer’s market, Marketfest, and the Manitou Days Parade.Inside, the home exudes timeless charm with rich woodwork and elegant spaces throughout. The front sunroom, a serene retreat, invites you to soak in views of the lake and the lively walking path. The beautiful living room, with its handsome paneling and stately fireplace, is ideal for intimate gatherings or quiet relaxation. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is designed for both inspiration and connection. Upstairs, the primary suite and three additional bedrooms provide ample space for luxury living, complemented by a spacious bonus room with endless possibilities. The lower level, complete with a beautiful pub-style bar, amazing woodwork, gas fireplace, and family room, offers a perfect setting for entertaining, and is awaiting your personal touches. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is a dream come true with a large stone fireplace, paver patio, garden space, and plenty of room for play. This is more than just a home; it’s an iconic property—a rare chance to own a piece of history on the storied shores of White Bear Lake.
