The exterior retains its timeless appeal, enhanced by a new roof and gutters (2024), while most windows were replaced in 2023 for added efficiency and comfort. Inside, a striking stone fireplace anchors the living area, creating a warm, inviting space ideal for cozy evenings. Original details and a well planned layout highlight the craftsmanship of the era, while a bonus loft space offers flexible use as a home office, game room, or additional living area. Off the quaint brick patio you'll find the 628 sq ft detached garage provides exceptional versatility with attic storage, a half bath, and AC and heat, perfect for a workshop, studio, or hobby space. The yard features a white picket fence with artificial turf installed in 2021 and professionally maintained annually, offering low maintenance enjoyment year round. Please see supplements for additional updates including a new water heater (2020). Whether you’re seeking a weekend retreat or a full time residence that honors its historic soul, this lake house delivers. Enjoy a leisurely stroll to the water’s edge, soak in the peaceful surroundings, and experience the close knit community that makes Shady Shores so special.
