    What's special

    Are you ready for those weekend getaways to the lake? This 940 sq ft finished cottage is full of charm! The complete renovation in 2017 included all new bathrooms, new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, new electrical, plumbing, roof, wrap-around deck, and new heating & cooling systems. The current owner installed a new water line to the street, tile around the home, and a new chain link fence in the backyard, perfect for pets! Located just around the corner from the beach and boat launch, this cozy walkout ranch home with mature trees and a private backyard has seasonal views of the lake and pond. The 300+ acre Diamondhead Lake is stocked with fish and features two beaches along with a volleyball area. Tons of amenities are included in this association: disc golf course, bow hunting, hiking, and miles of ATV trails. All information obtained from seller and public records.
