The perfect little cottage on Upper Silver Lake. This cottage is situated on one of the widest parts of the lake offering the most amazing views and 76' of waterfront. This simple yet fully equipped cottage features a nice screened in porch across the front where you will enjoy many beautiful mornings and evening sunset views. Easy low bank frontage and sandy shallow depths at water's edge make it great for fun in the water. 2 bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. The basement offers a nice surprise of a recent remodel with a family room, ceramic tile and a great bar as well a third bedroom and 2nd full bath. Also has great storage in the basement and a storage shed outside. Bonus- New septic system was installed in 2022.
