This traditional style family cottage is reminiscent of the way life used to be – simple. The lot is the ideal blend of wooded and open areas PLUS there is deeded waterfront just steps away across the road. The shoreline is all sandy with very good privacy. It has only been partially developed but it could be lovely. There are lake views from the cottage and deck as well. Overall area of the cottage is approximately 645 sq. ft. There are two bedrooms with a futon in the sun porch for additional sleeping space. The septic system is approximately 18-20 years old and there is a 3pc bath with water supplied by a drilled well.

This is a very appealing property with a lovely wooded setting but open areas for kids to play or adults to soak up the sun.

Although it’s a 3 season cottage, access is municipally maintained year round paved road. NOTE: the frontage shown is for the waterfront parcel, the frontage for the cottage parcel is approximately 105 feet according to municipal records. (id:51398)
