    What's special

    Sunsets. Spectacular sunsets. Imagine sitting in your sunroom every night, watching the sun go down over the lake. Each sunset is unique. Or, sit on the canal dock and watch the sunrise over St. John's Marsh. Situated on magnificent Anchor Bay in Lake St. Clair, with both lake and canal frontage, you can enjoy the protected waters of Anchor Bay or venture out onto Lake St. Clair and even into Canadian waters. Contact owners via email, sellcottage(at)Comcast(dot)net, or call/text to 734-985-0750. Acquire this prime location on prestigious Anchor Bay Drive (includes frontage on both lake side and canal side), with the lowest mortgage rates in history! The lake-facing exposure is almost all windows, providing you with gorgeous big water views from the dining room, family room, master bedroom, and sunroom - which is heated - allowing year round comfortable enjoyment of the view. Family room, dining room, and kitchen are open, allowing family conversations, movie night, or watching the big game together. The boathouse includes an historic Algonac lift (believed to be 4 ton), and provides protected storage for your boating needs. A sturdy steel seawall lines both the lake and canal sides, and the deep water canal is clean and free-flowing. Access via the canal to the north channel of the St. Clair River, providing easy access out to Anchor Bay, or upriver to Algonac, Harsen's Island, Walpole Island, and beyond. A brand new roof (full tear off) was installed in 2011, with a 50 year warranty (including labor) that is transferrable, and a 130 mph 15 year wind warranty. In 2019, a new gas water heater was installed (6 year transferrable warranty), furnace was tuned up, and new sump pumps were installed. Wallside windows installed in 2001 with 35 year transferrable warranty. This property has been in the current owner's family since 1959. It was used as a cottage until 1983, then used as a fulltime home until 2013, and currently used as a summer cottage. Lot is 50' x 196' on the lake side, and 50' x 59' on the canal side. Boathouse is 33' x 15.5'. All dimensions are approximate. Due to COVID-19, showings prior to an offer will only be by reviewing photos, and personalized video tours for qualified buyers. Please do not visit the property without contacting the owners for permission. No solicitation emails/calls please. Contact owners via email, sellcottage(at)Comcast(dot)net, or call/text to 734-985-0750. If you use the Contact Agent button, select the OWNER button (but email or text/call is preferred). Note that the Google Streetview that Zillow automatically shows is not current, the home next door's construction is complete, as is landscaping. Property taxes would be $1,654.32 lower for primary residence.
