I just can't imagine having a fully furnished, fully remodeled home, in a lake community, with lake privileges and a dock (in the Spring), for my first home, but at $219,900, this is definitely 1st time home buyer pricing! OR, if you've ever dreamed of having an affordable vacation home at a lake, now is your chance!! This home comes fully furnished with new furniture, plus all appliances and decor. It has been updated with 16 new windows, new roof on back of home, main roof is estimated at 5 years, doors and windows have all been wrapped in aluminum, new soffit and fascia, new trim, new furnace and water heater in 2020, new drywall in many rooms, all new flooring & paint. The lovely kitchen and bath were both completely redone and the new lighting throughout the home makes it bright and cheerful. The 1st bedroom area, at the top of the steps, on the 2nd level, could be used as a large dorm style bedroom, with a twin bed on the left of the steps & a queen bed on the right. The main bedroom is at the front of the home, and you need to walk thru the dorm-style bedroom to get to it, but the entire upstairs is super adorable! There are 3 brand new beds, one in each space. The sellers went to alot of trouble to make the living room space more modern, by enclosing an exposed pipe and replacing all the windows, for energy efficiency and to maximize natural lighting. The large, graveled driveway can accommodate 3-4 vehicles, which is not the case for many homes at Portage Lakes. Parking is at a premium. Part of the grassy area on the left of the driveway goes with this property & is marked with a stake. As a homeowner and part of the Shore Acres Beach Club, you have first dibs on a dock every Spring.
