Overview

Description

Rare opportunity to own a .5-acre lot on Lake Pelican with direct backyard lake access and wide open water views. This property offers a hard-to-find combination of space, shoreline, and flexibility in one of Watertown's most established lake areas. The home features 5 bedrooms total — 3 on the main level and 2 in the lower level — plus 2 bathrooms, a detached 2-stall garage, and a hot tub. The lot provides room for outdoor living, future expansion, or redevelopment, with a gentle slope to the water and mature trees for privacy and shade. While the home remains largely in its original condition, it offers a solid footprint for renovation or customization, allowing the next owner to design a lake home that fits their vision without paying for someone else's updates. Whether you're looking for a personal lake retreat, a year-round residence, or a long-term investment, this Lake Pelican property delivers location, land, and lake access that are increasingly difficult to find.
