Driving out here, the road opens up fast—wide stretches with room to breathe, lake views cutting through stands of trees, the kind of landscape where a single address might sit on several acres. It's rural enough to feel removed, but close enough to Duck Lake and Lower Crooked Lake Park that water and green space anchor the rhythm of the place.

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
