6977 Loud Drive

Welcome to your new lakeside retreat! Boasting over 100 feet of sandy-bottom frontage on all-sports Van Etten Lake, this special property features not one, but two cottages! The 740-square-foot lakeside cottage features hardwood floors, two bedrooms, a ¾ bath, and a spacious living room with wood-burning stove. Enjoy morning coffee or watch the sunset out on your 20' x 16' deck overlooking the water. Buyers will love the updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and the year-round comfort of new ductwork and gas forced-air furnace, all installed just two years ago. A high and dry walk-out Michigan basement is a rare find, housing mechanicals, a laundry area, and plenty of storage space. Guests or extended family will enjoy the second cottage, great for three-season use, with lake views, tranquil living room, kitchen, two more bedrooms, and a ¾ bath. A great investment, you'll find so many updates including plumbing, electrical, wood windows, and more! The sizeable lot also boasts your own cement boat launch on the property, steel seawall, and a new battery-operated power boat lift—recently installed at a cost of $17,000—to make it easy to get out on the lake. There is ample room for all the toys you'll want to to enjoy lake life, with a drive-through one-car garage, and separate storage shed. Whether you’re gathering family for the summer, looking for space to host guests, or own a great short-term rental opportunity, this lakefront property offers two cottages, plentiful storage and is ready for you to enjoy the waterfront.
