Vintage lake cottage on nearly an acre, with a one-bay boat house. Many memories have been made by one family since 1946! The beautifully wooded lakefront lot fronts on a quiet cove facing east. Main entrance is at street level. Location is a short drive from Ingles/Hwy 9 with no curvy roads. Cottage is ready for a visionary to transform it into a dream home. Or start from scratch and build closer to the water. When built as a summer getaway decades ago there was no need for heat, but there are two wood burning fireplaces (condition unknown) and a whole-house fan was/is enough to keep everyone cool in hot weather. The kitchen/dining area has a feel of nostalgia. A sunroom off the living room lets in more light and provides a nice view of the lake, especially in winter.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
