This property is nestled on the south-west shores of Big Birch Lake. A 100' stretch of gradual lakeshore like this rarely becomes available. The home features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, providing a solid foundation with opportunities for improvement and personalization. The roof for the house and detached garage were re-shingled in July 2024, ensuring peace of mind for years ahead. The lot includes unused space across Birch Valley Road, providing room for outdoor activities, storage, or future projects. This property offers a perfect getaway spot in one of the area’s most desirable lakefront communities. A fantastic opportunity to create your own lakeside haven!
