Perched in a welcoming island community where you can drive right to your front door, this charming Chain O'Lakes cottage offers the perfect blend of year-round comfort and weekend escape. Best of all, you'll enjoy the peace of mind that comes with being high and dry, outside of the flood zone, embracing the waterfront lifestyle you've been dreaming about without the worry. Step inside to discover a freshly painted interior where the kitchen flows effortlessly into the open-concept living and dining areas. Expansive waterfront views create a stunning backdrop, while hardwood floors and a cozy fireplace add warmth and character, making every season enjoyable. Just outside, a spacious deck invites you to relax with your morning coffee, entertain friends, or unwind after a fun day soaking up fun and sun on the water. The thoughtfully designed floor plan features three bedrooms and two full baths, including a private primary suite occupying its own level. This peaceful retreat offers a generously sized bedroom, an en suite bath, and the added convenience of a washer and dryer on the same floor. Life on the Chain is all about making memories, and this property is ready for adventure from day one. The pier and boat lift are included, allowing you to head out on the water whenever the mood strikes. A waterfront shed provides the perfect place to store kayaks, paddleboards, fishing gear, and other lake toys, while the detached garage offers additional storage.
