Property Description

Rarely available waterfront cottage in Lewis Shore! Tucked away beyond the woods and farmland on the outskirts of Elkton, this charming retreat offers the opportunity to enjoy a relaxed waterfront lifestyle at the top of the Elk River. Imagine starting your morning with coffee on the deck while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Spend the day fishing, boating and rafting up with friends, or cruise to a waterfront restaurant for lunch and live music. Then come home, unwind on the spacious waterside deck, and enjoy a beautiful sunset over the water. Originally built in the 1930s, this cottage has been enjoyed by the current owners as their summer retreat for the past 28 years. It has the charming atmosphere you would expect of a cottage built in that time period and includes 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a very large waterside deck that is great for watching the sunsets. Recent improvements include a new well, new pressure tank and new HVAC system, all completed in 2025. The roof is approximately 12 years old, and most furnishings are included, making it even easier to begin enjoying your new retreat. A special opportunity to own a waterfront retreat in Lewis Shorecome experience the setting, the sunsets and the lifestyle for yourself! Parking is located in the field across the lane.
