About This Home
Step back in time and become part of Shady Shores’ rich history with this charming 1939 lake house, where vintage character and thoughtful updates come together in a truly special setting near the US Army Corps of Engineer land. The exterior retains its timeless appeal, enhanced by a new roof and gutters (2024), while most windows were replaced in 2023 for added efficiency and comfort. Inside, a striking stone fireplace anchors the living area, creating a warm, inviting space ideal for cozy evenings. Original details and a well planned layout highlight the craftsmanship of the era, while a bonus loft space offers flexible use as a home office, game room, or additional living area. Off the quaint brick patio you'll find the 628 sq ft detached garage provides exceptional versatility with attic storage, a half bath, and AC and heat, perfect for a workshop, studio, or hobby space. The yard features a white picket fence with artificial turf installed in 2021 and professionally maintained annually, offering low maintenance enjoyment year round. Please see supplements for additional updates including a new water heater (2020). Whether you’re seeking a weekend retreat or a full time residence that honors its historic soul, this lake house delivers. Enjoy a leisurely stroll to the water’s edge, soak in the peaceful surroundings, and experience the close knit community that makes Shady Shores so special. Don’t miss the opportunity to write your own chapter in the story of a lakeside treasure that has truly stood the test of time.
