that house you refer to…for $499k… haven’t seen the inside..but have seen it from outside… it has a $30k spa too. people who owned it bought another house in harveston and can’t unload that one. it was in escrow, fell out, now they are under pressure to sell it. motivated sellers..
only drawback I see to the lake is all the activity it gets. yeah you geta nice view..but the floorplans of those “cottages” are crappy if you ask me. they are very long/narrow and almost have a tubular feel. i have been inside them and to me they feel small. square footage is ok, but they FEEL small due to the layout.
lakefront view is nice. but the lake gets a LOT of activity. it’s a great place to walk arond, take the kids to…. play at the park, etc.. but if your front yard looked at that lake…you also get teenagers making out on the lawn, kids running and screaming all day long…. people driving up/downt he frontage street and taking up parking all the time..
there is a decent problem with kids screwing around… smoking weed, having sex.. we’re not talking major crime or anyting…just kids doing what some kids do.. but if it were on your front lawn 24/7 you’d be sick of it.. i know people who live on the lake and it’s somewhat of a nuisance.
i’d rather be OFF the lake, NOT pay lakefront prices, and walk over to enjoy it. i’ts not like it’s beachfront prpoerty or anything…
