Historic Boathouse Cottage on Bass Lake, Spread Eagle Chain of Lakes! Nestled on the serene shores of the prestigious Bass Lake, part of the coveted Spread Eagle Chain of Lakes, this historic boathouse cottage is a rare gem that you could not build today—a one-in-a-million opportunity. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be enveloped by the tranquility of the surroundings, with panoramic views of the shimmering waters and a gentle slope that leads you to the lake’s edge. A picturesque walkway, bordered by fieldstone walls and brick pavers, guides you to a sprawling 1,500 sq. ft. dock, where you’ll find direct access to a pristine sandy beach. See if you can spot the embedded watch in the stone walls! The interior of the cottage is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, featuring stunning log and knotty pine finishes, vaulted ceilings, and an open-concept design. Every window frames breathtaking vistas, inviting nature into every corner of this charming retreat. The living room is a cozy haven, complete with a natural gas fireplace that adds warmth and ambiance to cool evenings by the lake. Whether you’re a water enthusiast or simply seeking a peaceful escape, this property offers it all. Listen to the soothing sounds of the waves lapping against the shore, hear the loons call, and watch as boats drift lazily by while the rest of the world rushes on. Cast a line right off the dock, or explore the lake by kayak, aqua cycle, or canoe—all included with the property. The boathouse features two-boat slips, while the tastefully updated bathroom and gracious foyer ensure your guests are greeted in style. This property is not just a home; it’s an experience—a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in excellent condition, with thoughtful updates that blend modern comforts with timeless charm. Set amidst partial woods for added privacy, this retreat also includes a shed for extra storage. Don’t miss your chance to own this secluded haven where nature’s beauty and tranquility reign supreme.
