Description
Welcome to 9720 Lakeview Dr., a beautifully updated 1-bedroom, 1-bath lakefront cottage nestled on a peaceful dead-end road with no through traffic, offering privacy, tranquility, and incredible recreational potential. Set on all-sport Goose Lake, an 80-acre spring-fed lake, this unique property includes two parcels on each side of the road, (one with the home and one with direct lake frontage), providing exceptional flexibility and value. Goose Lake offers excellent fishing opportunities, making it a perfect spot for anglers to enjoy casting for a variety of fish right from the dock or pontoon. Originally built in 1947, the home blends classic cottage charm with extensive modern upgrades. Recent improvements include new vinyl flooring in 2025, new stove and refrigerator in 2025, central air installed in 2023, a steel roof and gutters added in 2022, new windows and siding in 2022, a new well in 2021, and updated wiring in 2021. The septic system was pumped in 2025, and a small basement offers additional storage. Parking is available for up to four vehicles. Enjoy outdoor living with a nice dock included for easy lake access, a well-maintained fire ring perfect for relaxing evenings by the water, and a 12' x 16' shed for storing lake gear and tools. The property also borders county park land, offering direct access to scenic walking paths and peaceful natural surroundings. As an added bonus, an 18-foot Sweetwater pontoon with trailer is included, allowing you to fully enjoy lake life from day one. Located within Hillsdale County, this cottage is just 20 minutes from Hillsdale and Jackson, and close to popular attractions such as MIS Raceway, Meckley's Apple Orchard, Bundy Hill ORV Park, and the Irish Hills, along with excellent restaurants and nightlife. With strong potential as an Airbnb or short-term rental, this property is ideal as a weekend escape, investment opportunity, or full-time lakeside retreat. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready lakefront cottage in a highly desirable recreational area.
