The "lake house", as it's been called for decades, is a unique home on the north shore of beautiful Rennie Lake. Opportunity awaits as much of this home is a blank slate. Fashioned after the Flap Jack shack in style, this retro 70's home is ready to be brought into the 21st century. This large home has 2 or possibly 3 distinctly separate units with direct frontage on Rennie Lake. Home is in need of many updates and repairs but the potential is great, considering the size of the structure. Unit A features 3 bedroom/1 bath, Unit B has the potential of 3 bedrooms/1 bath and Unit C (in the lower level) has the potential of having 2 bedrooms & 1 bath. It would be possible to make a single residential house as well. The size of the footprint of this home could never be duplicated.
