Don't go chasing waterfalls...enjoy the one in your own backyard! This YEAR ROUND home gives you the best of waterfront living! Overlooking the quiet and serene spillway, "The Pond" of Lake 13 offers the lyrical sounds of the waterfall, peaceful view of the quiet waters and hardwoods surrounding it. 3 doors down is your gateway to All Seasons Lake 13 beach & dam w the boat launch about 350 yards from there. The home has over 1200 sqft of barrier free and elevated decking (fresh stain coming soon) to take in the views & enjoy your tranquil surroundings. The pond pours into the river so kayaking might be an option from your backyard! Ducks, fish and some pretty impressive turtles share your waterfront so be prepared for frequent visits! This year round home is fully insulated, heated with a forced air natural gas, casement windows, laundry area & newer stainless appliances. It has been lovingly and artistically refreshed inside and out. (Home said to be built in the late 1980s but not verified) The new Green metal roof (2023) & shutters complement the deep brown siding (painted 2024) & are reminiscent of summers at camp! and the nearby fire pit makes one hungry for a freshly toasted s'more! Inside the theme will take your imagination & relaxing on bright summer days at the beach! The large living room (refreshed in 2024) has 2 door walls looking over the deck to the waters below for a stunning year round view! The kitchen was refreshed in A bright and cheery motif in 2025. The bath (2024) boldly ties in natural colors w/ a black & white theme. The spacious bedrooms have sizable closets and were freshly painted with new carpet May 2025). Have fun with your Smart (google) lighting throughout the house - change colors, dim/brighten or turn light on and off hands free! The bonus "little house" on the property could be very flexible in it usage. The lower level would be a great workshop with its benches and comes with a sauna to release any stresses of the past day The upper level loft would be a great entertaining area, guest overflow bunk area or artist studio! It could be converted into a light boat house or used for storage! With its unique setting, this rare find of Rural tranquility and All Sports Lake living is a once in a lifetime opportunity! Don't miss out!
