About This Home
Lake Life is all about the view and this little cabin delivers one of the best on Brooks Lake. Situated on 2.5 lots this 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bath lake home offers a peaceful setting, gorgeous water views and endless potential for someone ready to make it their own. Inside, the kitchen has already been updated with granite countertops, new cabinetry, range and farmhouse sink giving you a solid starting point for future improvements. A spacious sun porch overlooks the lake and provides extra living space perfect for morning coffee, game nights, extra sleeping area or just enjoying the view year round. The home could use some further cosmetic updating but the bones are there. Importantly, the HVAC was new in 2026 and the roof was replaced in 2019! The entire layout works well for a lake side retreat. Outside, the dock, deck and exterior reflect the homes vintage character. The main lake view is hard to replicate at this price point. If you have been searching for an affordable waterfront property with big views on a quiet fishing lake this is your opportunity. Brooks lake is a tranquil, no wake, private lake of approx. 70 acres. The lake is surrounded by over 700 acres of forest with trails managed for your recreational use and which can be accessed from your back door! Brooks is stocked with Bass and Crappie and a constant level is maintained. There is a voluntary POA that maintains the lake and roads. Come enjoy the peace of an owners focused community where short term rentals are not permitted.
