A completely renovated 2BR/2BA cottage near Mirror Lake. Very successful rental (in R-2 zoning). From the screened in porch, you can hear a babbling brook. Outdoor space galore, including a fire pit suitable for John Denver sing-alongs. Well maintained, updated mechanical throughout, and a great layout that belies it's actual footprint. Look in the dictionary under "Charming in Highlands", and this one pops up.
