Lovely lakefront cottage home on South Entry, with a view of the South Entry lighthouse from your living room window. Main entry has a 14 x 15 mudroom, with bright corner windows and vinyl plank floor. The kitchen and living area have beautiful hardwood floors. A 5 x 8 pantry off the kitchen can be accessed by a unique sliding glass door. It is roomy enough to fit a second refrigerator or freezer. The subway tile backsplash gives the kitchen a modern look. Most windows throughout the home have been replaced and freshly trimmed. There are two first floor bedrooms, and main floor bath and laundry. The sandstone fireplace in the dining room has wood burning insert, chimney has a newer liner. Stay toasty warm with a cozy fire, while enjoying your view of the big lake. Opening the French doors out to the sunroom expands your living space by approximately 150 sq ft. The sunroom gives access to a large deck to add even more space for gathering or entertaining. The upstairs bedrooms have 6’ ceilings and knee walls. Live on the lake, with only a short drive to Houghton. The stoplight at MTU is ~ 15 min and the Portage lift bridge is 18 min in the morning commute.
