Property Description
Get your boat, your guests, and head to the lake for a summer of fun! This completely remodeled 3bed/2bath cottage PLUS 1-2 bed/1 bath guest house sits on 90 feet of private frontage on ALL-SPORTS School Section Lake. Just 1 hr from GR and a few minutes from St. Ives Golf Course and all the amenities and fun of Canadian Lakes area (without being in that HOA). Decorated and updated for the best luxury experience down to the new vinyl plank flooring and neutral classic cottage decor. Major remodels in 2016 and 2020 hit almost everything from new drainfield and septic, to roof, mechanicals, and additions that expanded space and created a true primary bedroom with ensuite bath and separate entertainment house. Wrap around decks, new docks, private sandy beach, new patio with firepit, and the guest house with separate kitchenette, full bathroom, indoor storage and elevated lake views that make you linger and never want to go home!
