Modest but comfortable seasonal cottage, less than a 5 minute walk to the very popular Lollipop Beach on Amston Lake. Living room is finished with real pine paneling. Large kitchen with lots of cabinets and room for a full dining table for lots of summertime entertaining. Front bedroom has a queen bed + twin, 2nd bedroom has a double bed + twin. Bathroom was recently updated and has full tub/shower. Additional public room has plenty of space for many uses, including another dining area, play space and bunkbeds. Wood deck in the back is perfect for a picnic table and grill. Large side yard for summer play. Parking area has space for 3-4 cars. For those with a community spirit, the Amston Lake Improvement Association (ALIA) is very active, sponsoring various fun events for all residents throughout the summer season. Seasonal water is turned on from April - October. Most house furnishing convey with the sale except those which may be labeled "OUT." If you're looking for a summer get-away cottage in a quiet setting, this may be just be it. BTW, NO powerboats are allowed on Amston Lake; any watercraft that's human-or-wind-powered is fine. There's an annual tax (currently $205 and separate from the property tax) for lake-area property owners which gives access to the beaches and parking lots and funds maintenance of the Lake itself and associated roads - well worth it. Owner-agent.
