Layout & Key Features: The thoughtfully designed layout features a cozy den on the main level. The upper floor boasts 2 bedrooms, including a dedicated dressing room/walk-in closet, and a conveniently located half-bath. Outside, the expansive shoreline offers endless possibilities, while a brand-new gravel driveway provides ample parking space for guests or the perfect spot to park an RV.

Both are backed by a comprehensive, multi-stage treatment system, including a high-end reverse osmosis system, an iron filter, and a UV filter for maximum water quality and safety. Exterior: Structurally sound and completely move-in ready. The exterior facade awaits the new owner’s personal touch to match its beautifully renovated interior.
