A unique situation to have deeded access to Twin Lakes. A private summer cottage that can either be restored or torn down on the corner of a 3.84 ac lot overlooking the lake. The land should accommodate a building site higher up on the parcel if desired. The access to the lake is excellent for swimming and kayaking/canoeing with a dock at the waters edge. The cottage is also close to O'hara's Marina where you can keep your boat and the owners will also sell their 2009/10 Starcraft 1600 speed boat, which is perfect to learn to water ski or tube this summer. Additionally, the Twin Lakes Beach Club is just across the street.
the driveway is shared with 275 Twin Lakes Rd, who also has an easement over 277 Twin Lakes Rd to access the back of their property
