Directions & Remarks

Public Remarks: Nestled on the east side of Lake Edward, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom log home offers over 2,200 sf of warm, inviting living space on nearly 2.5 acres with 165 ft of lake front featuring spectacular sunset views. Set on a quiet frontage road just off County Road 3, this location puts the best of the Brainerd Lakes Area within easy reach. County Road 3 links the vibrant communities of Crosslake and Brainerd/Baxter — groceries, dining, and entertainment are a straight shot away. But pull down the drive and the world slows down: the lake, the yard, and the shoreline take center stage, and the everyday noise fades into the background. The open main level features a kitchen, dining area, and a fireplace-anchored living space — perfect for cozy evenings. The expansive owner's suite includes a private bath and wood-burning stove, while the walk-out basement adds a guest bedroom, bath, and laundry. Step outside to a bug-free 3-season porch facing the lake, expansive decks for grilling and entertaining, and a sprawling yard with a meandering path down to the boardwalk and shoreline — plenty of room for lawn games, relaxing, or adding a garage down the road. Like many of the lakes in this area, Lake Edward features a gradual shoreline with some natural weeds and reeds — but what lies beneath is a beautiful sandy bottom — perfect for wading and swimming. No matter the time of year, anglers will love its excellent multi-species fishing: walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and perch. When the snow flies, miles of snowmobile trails start right out your door, making this a true four-season retreat. And you're just minutes from Nisswa, Crosslake, Brainerd, and the Cuyuna Country Recreation Area for shopping, dining, and mountain biking. Schedule your private showing today!
Directions: From Crosslake, go south on CR 3 approx. 12 miles. Then take a RIGHT onto Fork Lane. Follow to # 24015. From Brainerd, go North and stay on CR 3 for approx. 10 miles. Turn LEFT onto Fork Lane. Follow to #24015.
