Escape the ordinary and embrace lakeside living in this thoughtfully designed, move-in-ready cottage. Wake up to year-round lake views, spend your days at the private beach, and unwind with unforgettable sunsets from the comfort of home. Perfectly positioned across from Putnam Lake and a short walk to private Warren Beach, this isn't just a home, it's a front-row seat to nature's most spectacular show. Tucked away on a quiet side street with only a handful of neighbors, the property offers a rare sense of privacy while still feeling connected. Whether you're searching for a chic starter home, downsizing, or a weekend escape, this home offers a lifestyle that's hard to replicate. Inside, the home welcomes you with warmth and character, centered around a floor-to-ceiling stone corner fireplace that creates an inviting gathering space. The updated kitchen is bright and functional, while the primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with lake views through a large picture window. Outside, the elevated yard sits above the street, creating a private setting for morning coffee, tea or quiet evenings under the stars overlooking the water. Beyond its charm, this home delivers peace of mind with significant recent upgrades, including a new septic system, well and pump, and high-efficiency HVAC with central air and heating, so the heavy lifting is already done. Best of all, exclusive lake and beach rights are included in the taxes with no additional HOA fees. Dedicated parking is located across the street, with additional parking nearby. Homes offering this combination of charm, year-round lake views, private beach access, and major upgrades at this price point are rarely available. Opportunities like this don't come around often. Secure your summer escape or year-round retreat before it's gone. Showings begin on May 7, 2026.
