    What's special

    Brick fireplaceDock is also included
    Take a step back in time and tour this summer cottage gem, owned by the same family for many years. It's tucked away from the traffic and sits on a DOUBLE LOT high on a bluff overlooking Vineyard Lake, an all-sports lake in the Irish Hills. The cottage has everything you envision in an historic cottage with a brick fireplace and narrow beadboard paneling covering the walls. Lots of windows allow for a great view of the lake, the beautiful sunsets, and nature. Although the kitchen is tiny, there's both an enclosed side porch with a sink and a dining area adjacent to it. All cottage furnishings remain. Stairway leads to water's edge with two decks so you can enjoy the lake. Stairway is on Norvell Twp. property but is permitted and private. Although it's just like lakefront, it's called "access" in this area. Dock is also included. Twp. allows tree trimming but not removal without approval on its property. Cottage has been maintained throughout the years by reinforcing the foundation, replacing windows & adding the bathroom. The shed sits on the second lot. Separate tax bill for the road is usually $40-50 after splitting with other property owners. Sewer charge is approximately $216 quarterly. Fireplace has a gas insert but hasn't been used for a while. Year built is estimated.
