The Preserve at Hunter’s Lake

Southeastern Wisconsin has many wonderful places to live, however, if you are looking for one of the most spectacular places to live, you will want to check out “The Preserve at Hunter’s Lake” in Ottawa, Wisconsin.

The Preserve at Hunter’s Lake features rolling hills, woods, prairies, steep slopes, wetlands and a shoreland for your enjoyment. In addition, you will find a one-mile segment of the 1,000 mile-long Ice Age National Scenic Trail which winds its way through the undulating terrain within the community’s common area and then it connects to the private subdivision trails.

The exclusive sub-division includes over 185 acres of permanently preserved open space. During the 1850’s this land was farmed by the Hunter family and is filled rich in history. While farming, they built a lannon stone mansion and established a small stone quarry to serve the area building industry. The quarry later closed and the property was taken over by a prominent Milwaukee brewing family.

The Preserve at Hunter’s Lake is nestled on 285 acres and includes three-fourths of a mile of undeveloped shoreline on Hunter’s Lake, as well as, a small stream-fed lake.

If you are looking for the perfect place to call home, you are in luck. Currently I have a listing in this heavily sought after sub-division. This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath Colonial located in The Preserve at Hunter’s Lake. As you enter this home, you will be impressed by the beautiful foyer, next we have a formal living room, which has an office/den attached to it. Walk thru the French doors and come into the cozy family room, complete with Natural fireplace. Next you will enjoy the large kitchen/dinette with patio doors leading you out to a beautiful back yard. Upstairs you will find the spacious master suite, complete with whirlpool tub, shower and double vanity sinks. Finally, you will have deeded lake access to Hunter’s Lake and will be able to enjoy all the many amenities this fabulous subdivision has to offer.
