Property Description
Welcome to the Sophisticated Cottage on Ackley Lake — a turnkey, fully furnished, year-round retreat with sunset views and lake access right in front of your home! Renovated throughout with new drywall and paint, new flooring and trim, new lighting and fixtures, custom cabinets and storage units, and newer appliances. Improved HVAC, added attic insulation, and updated electrical deliver true four-season comfort. Gas fireplace, front deck with lake views, backyard pergola and firepit, kids play space and hideaway, three lake access points, and lot and landscape improvements. Short-term rental friendly. Move-in ready. See supplemental remarks and attached information from AirDNA regarding earning potential. Outdoor living is where this property really separates itself. The front deck is the spot for morning coffee and sunset views over the water, while the backyard pergola and firepit make an easy gathering place for evenings with family and friends. Three separate lake access points mean the water is always just steps away, whether you are launching a kayak, taking a swim, or simply walking down to watch the day end. A dedicated kids' play space and hideaway gives the youngest guests a spot of their own. Welcome to the Sophisticated Cottage on Ackley Lake — a turnkey, year-round retreat where the work has already been done and the only thing left to do is arrive. Thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, this cottage pairs the charm you want on the water with the systems you need to enjoy it in every season. New drywall and fresh paint throughout, new flooring and trim, and new lighting and fixtures give the interior a crisp, current feel, while custom cabinets and built- in storage units keep everything neatly in its place. Newer appliances and a gas fireplace anchors the living space for cool mornings and long winter evenings. Behind the finishes, the important upgrades are all in place: improved HVAC, added attic insulation, and updated electrical — true four-season comfort, not a summer-only cabin. Lot and landscape improvements have the grounds looking their best. Offered turnkey and fully furnished, and well suited to short-term rental use — an easy transition to a weekend escape, a full-time lakeside home, or an income-producing property. The Sophisticated Cottage on Ackley Lake is move-in ready today.
