Home of the Week: Lakefront cottage with dock in Western Mass. for $700k
"The lake is frozen as this article is written, but put your thinking caps on and fast forward to summer. Think of riding a jet ski to a burbling stop or captaining a pontoon into making a soft bump against the wooden dock. The dock is large enough to act as a room itself: It presently holds a four-person table and a three-person couch, per the listing photos."
"Turning toward the house, the view is of a full-height clear glass slider flanked by slabs of glass that are flanked by double-hung windows with muntins. Atop is a triangular clerestory window (also an echo of an A-frame). Opening the sliders leads to the 187-square-foot living area with a vaulted black ceiling, a large black ceiling fan, white walls, and a set of double-hung windows on the left. The right exterior wall is occupied by the gas fireplace with a spot for a television above."
Two-bedroom, 1950 cottage on Ashmere Lake offers 1,080 square feet, one full bath, public sewer and shared private well, and 2025 taxes of $4,074; priced at $699,000.
