This property has wonderful eastern exposure to bathe in the sunshine of glorious mornings and afternoons by the water. More than 200’ of sandy shoreline in a secluded and calm cove makes this one of the premier lots on the entire lake. The tri-level floor plan offers a spacious, open living room with beautiful pine wood paneling, a cathedral ceiling, hardwood floors and a stone fireplace. This room overlooks a large dining and lounge area brightened by two walls of casement windows to allow the sunlight through. The centrally located kitchen contains a functional nook for your laundry appliances. Wake up to the morning sun and a stunning lake view from the master bedroom. The second bedroom can accommodate two twin beds, and a recently added area off the kitchen is perfect for a young camper. All-weather siding protects the exterior - no maintenance painting required. Originally built in 1960, this home has since received many upgrades including a new septic system installed in 2014. Upgrades to the electrical system were made in 2013, and a new roof and water heater were added in 2012. A large shed is on site for storing assorted beach accessories, while another smaller shed can hold tools and yard equipment. Bring your boat and park it on the private dock. Located approx. 2 hours from Boston, this property would make an ideal vacation home for young families.
