About this home

Charming Big Arb lakeside cottage now available! Enjoy open water eastern sunrises and views of state land as you dip your toes into the sandy bottom frontage. A wooded driveway within your 0.9 acre lot brings you practically to the water’s edge. The maintenance free composite patio/deck are the perfect places to take in the picturesque Northwoods views before returning to the 760 sqft home that sits ~25 ft from the water. A unique “eyebrow” entryway welcomes you home to your Northwoods 3 bdrm / 1 bath cabin featuring knotty pine throughout. The lake views are emphasized by top of the line Kolbe casement windows with fresh trim, including from the primary bedroom. FULLY furnished home, ready to use today (see inclusions list in documents). New appliances (2016), pine cabinets, cement board siding, and Spectrum internet are just a few of the cabin’s perks. The home also includes a fish cleaning house and a 16’x8’ storage shed, perfect for all of the toys. A rare Northwoods opportunity!
