The waterfront
Open water views from the lot's shoreline edge, with marshy grass at the water's edge and a treed island visible across the water
Inside the home
This is a fully furnished, original-condition cottage on a waterfront lot with direct access to the water's edge — but buyers should look closely at the shoreline photos. The waterfront portion is marshy with tall grass and no usable beach or dock, which is a meaningful difference from a swim-ready lakefront property. The interior is untouched from the 1970s-80s: original kitchen with white cabinets and white appliances, a dated three-piece bath, drop ceilings, and wood panelling throughout. The layout includes a sunroom addition used as a dining room, an open living/kitchen area with a propane stove, and three small bedrooms. The large deck runs the full width of the cottage and includes a timber-frame gazebo, but the deck boards are heavily weathered. The detached garage with a bunkhouse section adds usable space. This is a property priced for its lot and water access, not its finishes.
