Overview

Description

The Boathouse on Klinger Lake. This rare opportunity to own a historic waterfront property on Klinger Lake. Set on 0.43 level, lakefront acres with 170 feet of frontage, the property offers exceptional privacy and easy access to the water with no steps. Located on a private road with no through traffic, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Adirondack-style boathouse was built directly over the lake. It features a covered patio on one side and a screened porch on the other, creating a truly distinctive lakeside setting. Recent updates include: Cedar shake exterior; Windows, Exterior doors, Metal roof, Screened porch, Updated bathrooms. With limited turnover on Klinger Lake, opportunities to own a property with 170 feet of frontage, level lake access, and a historic over-water boathouse are uncommon. Built in 1920, this stone and cedar shake landmark combines timeless character with thoughtful updates, offering a waterfront property whose defining architectural feat cannot be replicated today.
