These are the highest-priced home sales reported in the Brainerd Lakes & Leech Lake Area, Minnesota for the week ending November 1, 2026. Each of the five came from a different town: Crosslake, Nisswa, Deerwood, Breezy Pt and Pequot Lakes. Together they came to $7.57 million. All five are lakefront homes, four in Crow Wing County and one in Cass County, and two of them sit on Lower Whitefish Lake.
No. 1 — $2,300,000 · 12462 Anchor Point Rd, Crosslake, Minnesota
The top sale of the week was a home on Anchor Point Road in Crosslake that sold for $2,300,000. It faces west over Lower Whitefish Lake, one of the lakes of the Whitefish Chain, and has 125 feet of frontage with a sandy beach and a sand lake bottom, so the sunsets go down over the water.
Inside, the home pairs the character of a northwoods cabin with later updates. A masonry fireplace rises three stories through the home, giving each level its own gathering spot by the fire. The primary suite is on the lake side and has a private deck, and there is a screened porch facing the lake as well as a finished walkout lower level. Built in 1989, the home has four bedrooms, four bathrooms and 4,104 square feet of living space, the most of any home in this week’s Top 5, on 0.57 acres.
There are three garage spaces, split between a detached two-stall garage for vehicles and a tuck-under garage for yard equipment, boats and other lake gear. Downtown Crosslake is close by. The property last sold for $1.875 million in 2021.
The home sold $50,000 above its $2.25 million asking price. Madeline Nelson of Keller Williams Realty Professionals/Larson Group Real Estate was the listing agent, and Robert Birkeland, of the same firm, Keller Williams Realty Professionals/Larson Group Real Estate, represented the buyer.

A composite deck runs the length of the lake side. The home was built in 1990 and has three bedrooms, four bathrooms and 3,500 square feet on one acre.
The lot sits 40 feet or more above the water, and a hill climber tram makes the trip down to the shore.

Restaurants, trails and golf are close, and Nisswa is minutes away.
