Description

Offer deadline of Monday, May 11th at 5pm Eastern. Seller will respond to all offers Monday evening. This Lake Superior cottage offers a rare combination of privacy, sandy frontage, acreage, and turn-key convenience. Set on 140 feet of sandy shoreline with 6 total acres, the property includes two parcels and two tax IDs, offering flexibility without requiring land division approval. Located on a quiet dead-end private road (no public access), the setting is extremely private, with mature trees surrounding the home and beautiful lake views from the living room. From the shoreline, you can see Point Abbaye and the Huron Islands, with opportunities to enjoy sunrises, sunsets, northern lights, and the sound of waves along the shore. With much of Point Abbaye remaining protected and undeveloped, the area benefits from exceptionally low light pollution, creating outstanding nighttime skies and stargazing conditions. Inside, the living room features a wood fireplace with a blower for added warmth. The 9×20 screened porch provides a great place to relax in the warmer months. The upstairs area is not included in the finished square footage and measures approximately 40 feet long, with a 10-foot width to the knee walls. It could be used for additional sleeping space, storage, a home office, or potentially finished into expanded living space with the addition of a lake-facing dormer or dormers. Fiber internet is connected, making the property a strong option for remote work. The home is offered mostly furnished, excluding a rocking chair, dining table and chairs with sentimental value, and select personal belongings. Kitchenware, tools, and a mower are included, making this essentially ready to use as a home or camp. The garage is 20×20. The road is privately maintained with no formal association, and neighbors have historically shared the cost of road improvements. As of last winter, a year-round neighbor plowed past the home.Nearby recreation includes the Huron River for trout fishing and thousands of acres of nearby CFA land. The additional acreage sits across Gauthier Road and is primarily cedar forest with a gorgeous canopy. It is a drive to get here, but the privacy, shoreline, and setting make it worth it!
