Per Owner: "The pond is part of the Saugatuck River. In the 24 years we have lived here we have not had to do anything to the pond. It is a natural waterway and requires no maintenance." Flood insurance $1385.40 a year. The studio apartment was constructed five years ago in the walkout basement complete with kitchenette and full bathroom. All mechanical equipment is in excellent condition, the furnaces are less than 10 years old, one central AC unit is one year old, and the other is five years old, the roof is relatively new with sections replaced five years ago or less, and other areas replaced ten years ago or less, the house was painted about six years ago, and the entire bridge deck and railings leading to the house were completely replaced a year and a half ago. The house has been well maintained and is in move-in condition. Needs some TLC, carpet/hardwood floors, update baths, paint etc. great potential!
