About This Home

This classic Pettibone Lake cottage offers 190 feet of lake frontage and features 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Above the detached garage is a spacious loft with its own bathroom, currently used as a guest house. Pettibone Lake is an all-sports lake covering approximately 45 acres with depths up to 40 feet. All-sport hours are limited to 10:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., and the lake is generally known for its peaceful atmosphere. The cottage has been well maintained and updated over the years. Hardwood floors, earth tones, and knotty pine accents create a true lake-cabin feel. A wall of lakeside windows offers panoramic water views, and a sliding glass door opens to a large elevated deck overlooking the lake. At the water’s edge, you’ll find a landscaped firepit area, storage space beneath the deck, and access to the basement, which houses the utility room. The frontage includes a mostly sandy beach and lake bottom, with a smaller section of natural shoreline. The detached garage measures 28x32 with 10-foot doors and features a full-length covered porch on the lakeside, offering elevated views protected from the weather. Above the garage, the 28x32 private loft includes a three-quarter bath and a small wet bar—perfect for guests or additional living space.
