This Lake Decatur brick-front cottage sits at the end of a private inlet and overlooks the water. The sunroom addition has large windows for beautiful lake views. The lower level kitchen offers a glass door leading to a covered patio. Natural plantings surround the inlet for additional privacy. Great opportunity to purchase an entry-level lake home at a lower "winter pool level" price. You won't find a better deal on Lake Decatur with your own private dock! Get ready for boating season, as the spring lake levels will return soon! The home needs a little loving care from someone with handyman skills. Selling "As Is".
