This chic and adorable lakefront Lindal Cedar Chalet is a tiny house lover's dream! Built in 1971 in an environmentally conscious small lake community, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath Chalet features a vaulted ceiling with floor to ceiling windows that showcase shimmering lake views from every angle. The sweet and solid house is tucked away in a comforting forest of trees: Float down a set of ergonomically engineered steps and landings, and you reach the back of the house, and a rear door that leads directly into the kitchen. Or follow the deck in the other direction, and you'll be at the front door, facing the lake, on a deck that is nearly twice the size of the house itself. You'll be surrounded by dappled sunlight filtering through the trees - follow a few more steps down and a dirt path, and you're next to the lake and your 180 feet of private waterfront. The master bedroom windows on the back side of the house are adorned with hand-carved window boxes, and whimsical wooden trim announce it as Swiss Chalet in style. But there is a Swiss Modernism at play in this solidly constructed, 1970's custom pre-fab. It would be a super fun, and worthwhile, investment, to redesign the space with updated kitchen and baths. Town water and sewer makes the house extremely low maintenance. And the low annual HOA fee takes care of the private road. Another fantastic feature: You can see the lake from inside the house, or from the 1700-square foot open deck - but you can't see the house from the lake - rare privacy for a smaller lakefront home.
