This lovely, unusual home and locale invites both relaxation and enjoyment of the outdoors. The house was built as a summer cabin and over the years has become a year round retreat with lots of character and charm and yet still has a cottage atmosphere. While there are some high ceilings and very spacious areas, it is still cozy and comfortable. There are two kitchens which supply ample space for groups. The main kitchen has some original cabinets as well as lovely, new white ones. The 2nd kitchen is in what was originally the back porch. The appliances all work, some are new. There are 2 stoves, 2 sinks, but only 1 refrigerator. The original sleeping porch now has windows throughout and could be heated and used year round. The deck overlooks the secluded, fenced yard. There is a shed which may have been started as a potential guest house, but not completed. It could be storage or perhaps a workshop. The basement can be accessed from either outside or inside the home. It has a finished 3rd bedroom and full 2nd bathroom with tile floor, but the ceiling is just under 7', so legally cannot be listed as such. EE furnace '19, roof '18. Wood laminate floor less than 5 years old. Many new windows including those in the living and dining areas. Fish or boat and relax in this lovely year round retreat. There is a dock area for this house and buyer could put a hoist in. Buyer has 1/19th undivided interest in the land,
