About this property

Spacious, bright & modern Gull Lake home - gentle elevation and sunsets

One week minimum rental required per local ordinance.

Come make memories at the 6,600 sq. ft. Lakeshore house! Our spacious yet intimate, bright and modern home on the North end and East shoreline of Gull Lake is uniquely equipped to handle your large family, or multiple families, in a single house.

MAIN LEVEL
A welcoming foyer and a functional mudroom (off the garage) greet all who enter, but the expansive views of Gull Lake really steal the show. Everyone seems to gather in the kitchen, and you will love the hub of our home. Double ovens, double refrigerators, double dishwashers and a 10 foot island help this kitchen handle everything a big-group can throw its way. With an adjoining screened-in porch as well as a sunny great room with electric fireplace and 65" television, there is plenty of space for everyone. A TV/exercise/playroom is just off the great room, but still private with its frosted-glass French doors. Grab a book and enjoy the gas fireplace in the reading room/office, also off the main-level great room and separated by frosted-glass French doors. Both the great room and the reading room access our Westerly-facing deck. Step outside to fire-up the BBQ or just enjoy a beautiful up-North sunset. The half-bath rounds-out the layout of the main level.

UPSTAIRS
The "treehouse" with its two ensuite bedrooms awaits those who enjoy the perch. Our roomy primary suite overlooks the lake but is a private sanctuary. An additional ensuite with two twin XL beds is down the hallway and enjoys a view of the wooded East side of the property. A storage closet with washer and dryer complete the upstairs level.

LAKE LEVEL
This is where the fun is! Our convenient lake-level walkout lets you stay close to all the action of the lake. Facing the lake are three (3) bedrooms - 1 king, 1 queen + 1 California king. The California king room in an ensuite, while the other two share (along with the bunk room) the hall bathroom and the shower room. The interior bunk-room with its walk-in closet is the perfect place for those late-sleeping teenagers. Cards, dice, board games, and a television are available in the wet bar/game room for those late summer night gatherings. The unique shower room with its double sinks is the perfect place for a quick shower after a fun day in the sun. Throw your suits and towels in the laundry room right next door and enjoy the evening. The lake level sunroom is spacious enough to store all your water and sand toys.

OUTDOORS
Feel free to take out our two paddle boards and explore the bay. Plenty of parking is available in the driveway at the mail level with additional parking in front of the road-side garage. The gentle elevation of the lake-side of the property makes it easy to get back-and-forth from the dock to the house when necessity strikes. Our gently-sloping, sand bottom swimming area is perfect for all ages. Ample dock space is available to tie-up your boat or other water toys. A rock fire-pit with Adirondack chairs is the quintessential way to end those long summer nights.

100' lake shore with long, private dock

walk-in swimming area with gradual slope - perfect for little kids

We're sure your family will enjoy the Lakeshore house as much as our family has for the short, yet memorable, time she's been ours.

About the host

Hosted by Jenn and Tony

Host profile image
We're Tony and Jenn - a native East Coaster (Tony) and Minnesotan (Jenn) who are currently rearing our family of four children in southern California. Jenn grew up in Illinois but often visited Gull Lake; the place where her mom's family spent summers. In early 2017, we fell in love with this beautiful property and saw the potential in the large home that had undergone several renovations through the years. We were confident that we could transform the home into our dream home and make it something truly special for not only our family of six but also our extended families and friends. Over the winter of 2017/2018 we underwent an extensive renovation and fell in love the with house all over again. The home was transformed into a bright, modern and comfortable gathering place. As Californians, we aren't able to enjoy our home as often as we'd like, so we decided to share it with others - the way we used to before we purchased our home.

Why they chose this property

Location, lots of room to be together OR alone, and location! We love the Westerly views, the gentle elevation, the sandy gradual slope of the lake, the long dock and the perfect location (in our opinion) on Gull Lake.

What makes this property unique

Views from virtually every room (sorry bathrooms have no view), a large kitchen/dining/great room perfect for large groups to be together, and lots of other rooms to find privacy to play or work.
