Charming cabin ready for you to make it your own! As you walk up to the front porch, you will hear the relaxing sound of the spring fed creek that runs underneath the house. As you walk through the front door, you will find an open living and kitchen area with a door leading to a spacious back porch overlooking the creek. Also inside you will find two bedrooms and one bathroom. The property has all paved road access with plentiful parking. A short walk across the street, with no steps, will lead you to the 2-stall boathouse with a partially covered upper level. The location is in the peaceful narrows where paddle boarding and kayaking are popular and the fishing is always good. This home needs maintenance, but has the potential to become the perfect cottage!
