About This Home
Rare Building opportunity on a stunning piece of Middle Straits Lake lakefront property with endless potential. Situated on a beautiful lot with scenic water views, this property offers the perfect setting to build your dream home. The existing structure is not livable and will require a full tear-down, making this an ideal project for builders, investors, or buyers looking for a cozy new build.

Whether you're envisioning a luxury lakefront retreat or a cozy getaway, this property provides the perfect canvas to bring your vision to life. Great opportunity to be on the lake this summer. Seller can provide plans already drawn up for 2100+/- sq. ft. house. Trees have been removed and is ready to build your dream home. Survey has been completed and available. See attached Plat from Access Oakland and survey. Take care in showing, watch your step. Access to the crawl is white door outside. NO SIGN on property.
