Description

What makes a waterfront a great waterfront. How about 2 waterfront parcels in low tax Wakefield to include a wonderful lake home and waterfront lot. If you were to design the ideal lake house what would you include. Perhaps A 2 car garage complete with tons of storage area above. In the house you surround yourself with a knotty pine interior with a towering cathedral beamed ceiling. Maybe a loft bedroom taking advantage of the views as well. A First floor primary bedroom, open kitchen with a peninsula...What makes a waterfront a great waterfront. How about 2 waterfront parcels in low tax Wakefield to include a wonderful lake home and waterfront lot. If you were to design the ideal lake house what would you include. Perhaps A 2 car garage complete with tons of storage area above. In the house you surround yourself with a knotty pine interior with a towering cathedral beamed ceiling. Maybe a loft bedroom taking advantage of the views as well. A First floor primary bedroom, open kitchen with a peninsula and spacious great room and large a cedar closet and family room beyond. A deck facing the lake is a given. Then you go down to the walk out lower level where you find natural slate stone floor in the main gathering space with wood stove- an indoor patio or sorts. a large family room, a second full bath. My favorite is the 20 foot screened porch to listen to the loons all night long and enjoy life on the lake every minute of the day. Storage is hard to create unless it is built that way so you have over 368sf of it here. Outside are grounds built with privacy and meandering pathways to the lake and dock. For a family compound or for investment the abutting waterfront home is available right next door plus an additional lot (see Mls 000000). So whether you wish to live in a private sanctuary or be part of a family compound, you have options here. It has been a family home for decades full of cherished memories, laughter and relaxation. Lake life is life Make it yours
