Description

Sold before print

Wake up to stunning lake views from this charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath cabin nestled on nearly 2 acres along the shores of Pequaywan Lake. With ~200 feet of lake frontage and a classic North Shore setting, this is the getaway you have been waiting for.

The main level offers 1,025 square feet of comfortable living space, featuring a cozy fireplace, a wood stove, and a layout that feels warm from the moment you walk in. The primary bedroom includes a private en suite half bath, and the home is served by a full bath as well. Whether you are hosting a full house or enjoying a quiet weekend, the space works.

Outside is where this property truly shines. The nearly 2 acre lot stretches across a beautiful shoreline on a 424 acre recreational lake with 33 feet of depth, plenty of room for fishing, kayaking, or just soaking it all in. A detached 24x32 garage keeps your toys covered, and the impressive 30x46 pole building offers serious storage or workshop potential for the hobbyist, sportsman, or small business owner.

Updated furnace, water heater, and most mechanicals give you peace of mind from day one, and the well and private septic round out a property that is truly move in ready. This is a rare opportunity to own a true lakefront cabin with the infrastructure to make it a four season destination.
