This cute 2-BR, 1-bath cottage sits across the road from Beaver Lake in Damascus, PA and it has a view of the lake. In addition, its own pond has a nice deck & dock -- a private spot for swimming, dining, and entertaining. The large, level lawn is surrounded by woods and has a nice garden shed for tools and mowers. The house is simplicity itself: an open kitchen/dining area forms the core, bedrooms and bath are off that, and the large, windowed living room looks out to the lake. This is the quintessential lake cottage. Electric: Circuit Breaker, BasementDescription: Block, LandFeatures: Cleared Lot,Mature Trees, Additional Information: HeatingFuel:Oil Above Ground,
