Property details

About 51 Lake Shore Dr

Location, location, location! This house is directly across from the town beach giving it awesome views and maximum convenience. It might be a tear-down -- and it might be salvageable with vision-but either way it's a diamond in the rough that has mountains of potential. It has a second house that must be sold with it -- 53 Lake Shore! An adorable 260 sq.ft. cottage that adds $50,000 to the price but so much value to the package. Could be a 3-season office or just a cozy retreat. Looking for an ambitious person with a creative mind. Unique offering. Sale is subject to probate court approval.
