Property Description
A rare and remarkable opportunity on the sun-drenched shores of Webster Lake. 174 & 175 Lake Shore Drive presents a beautifully curated waterfront compound with 124 feet of pristine, east-facing frontage. Consisting of two fully reimagined year-round cottages, this one-of-a-kind property captures the essence of refined lakeside living where design and flexibility combine. The cottage at 175 is a true showpiece. Soaring cathedral ceilings and walls of glass frame lake views, while a seamless open layout flows effortlessly. Custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, and Bosch appliances elevate the kitchen, while a spacious bedroom and custom walk in shower offer comfort and sophistication. Set just behind, 174 Lake Shore Drive offers a private and equally refined retreat with tranquil lake views. One bedroom, a dedicated office, full bath with custom quartzite surround, and a well-appointed kitchen with GE Profile appliances. Beautiful living spaces ideal for hosting guests, extended stays, or generating income without compromise. The grounds are nothing short of exceptional. Architecturally designed landscaping and hardscaping unfold across the property, complemented by cobblestone driveways, custom greenhouse, insulated workshop and parking pad for camper or boat. Granite steps lead to the water’s edge, where two docks and four boat slips invite endless days on the lake, while a Sundance spa offers a quiet place to unwind. Thoughtful modern enhancements include an integrated electric vehicle charging station, Mitsubishi heat pumps in both cottages, and electric fireplaces. Whether envisioned as a legacy retreat, a multi-generational escape, or a unique investment, this extraordinary waterfront offers a level of versatility and craftsmanship rarely found.
