What's special

Custom wood spiral staircaseSoaring beams

If you’re handy and have been thinking about a weekend place, this 3 bedroom, 1+ bath cottage at Melody Lake in Leslie is perfect for you. The main floor has a great room with soaring beams, 2 bedrooms, a full bath and opens to a spacious deck. It has an upstairs loft that can be used as a bedroom, office, etc. There is a custom wood spiral staircase that connects the two upper floors to the unfinished walkout basement, ready to have a full bath added. It’s offered at a great price because there are projects that need to be finished, but most of the materials are included. All the furniture is also included, so you can stay there the night you close and have coffee in the morning.
