Designed for effortless getaways and easy lake living, this storybook Michiana cabin delivers irreplaceable charm paired with upgrades you'll truly appreciate. Offering 3 bedrooms and one thoughtfully designed bathroom, the layout features separate toilet and shower spaces and a double vanity that feels straight out of a design magazine. Inside, you are greeted by the home's true showstopper: the original two story Michiana stone fireplace, a rare and beautiful centerpiece that defines the soul of the cottage. Lofted ceilings and an open floor plan allow the home to live larger than expected, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. The newly renovated kitchen shines with Bosch appliances, Kohler fixtures, gold accents, rounded tile, and fresh cabinetry, and opens directly to one of two screened in porches—perfect for summer evenings and quiet mornings alike. Custom window treatments throughout the home add a refined finishing touch while enhancing comfort and privacy. Behind the scenes, the home has undergone extensive system upgrades including brand new plumbing, brand new electrical (generator ready), all new windows, four energy efficient mini splits for heating and cooling, and a tankless on demand water heater. Additional improvements include new flooring, baseboards, appliances, fresh paint, and more. Step outside to enjoy beautiful, maintenance free landscaping designed so you can truly relax when you come to the beach, along with an outdoor shower and a large shed for storing all your lake life necessities. Located on a peaceful street just .2 miles from the beach, this home perfectly captures the essence of effortless Michiana living.
