Description
Beautiful, newer cottage located on the end of a quiet dead end street with lake access for your boat and/or jet skis. You’ll find it very roomy for it’s size with a main floor bedroom and a large loft that easily accommodates two queen beds with plenty of additional space. The cottage sleeps 8 very comfortably. Premium stamped concrete floors and patios throughout add durability and beauty. The attached 20’x30’ garage has a 10’ ceiling giving you ample room for your toys. Garage also has bonus room trusses providing a future expansion opportunity for 13’6" x 20’ of additional living space. (plenty of room for an additional full bath and large bedroom) Upgraded cedar shake vinyl siding, pvc trim, and metal roof add character and provide a long lasting low maintenance exterior. Nicely landscaped with underground irrigation, split-faced block retaining wall, and fire pit with patio for enjoying summer sunsets. While we have rented only a few weeks each summer ($1,650/week) the demand is sufficient to rent 10-12 weeks as we turn away many groups each year. Homeowners association dues are approximately $100/year.
NOTE: I have went through the process and have obtained a Letter of Map Amendment from FEMA removing the property from the Federal Flood Zone. This eliminates the need to carry Flood Insurance and will save $3,000-$4,000 in annual premiums!
