Enjoy Northwoods lake living with this beautifully updated and incredibly charming cottage on the Alder Lake Thoroughfare in Manitowish Waters! Offering 100 feet of frontage with easy access to Alder Lake, Wild Rice Lake, and the rest of the renowned Manitowish Chain just a short boat ride away, this turnkey property is ready to enjoy from day one. The bright and inviting main level features two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and stunning lake views through a large picture window that fills the home with natural light. A newly finished lower level expands the living space and includes an additional bedroom with an egress window, making it ideal for hosting family and friends. Relax in the three-season screened porch, gather around the water's edge, or head out from the brand-new pier system included with the property. Additional features include a drilled well, conventional septic, high-speed internet, backup generator, detached two-car garage, and a nicely wooded lot that provides privacy and classic Northwoods appeal. Sold mostly furnished with only a small list of exclusions, this is a rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready waterfront getaway on one of Wisconsin's most sought-after lake chains.
