Inside, you'll find a functional layout with plenty of space to spread out. The lower level is a true highlight-featuring a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace equipped with a fan to help efficiently heat the home, a full bathroom, a dedicated laundry room, and a fantastic bar area complete with a wet bar and mini fridge-perfect for entertaining.

The lot and pier are co-owned with two neighboring owners. There is no formal agreement governing use or maintenance, and arrangements are handled cooperatively among owners.
