470 Europe Lake Road, Door County:
The Quintessential Lake Cottage
It seems as though every year I am lucky enough to list something that has been in the same family for a very long time. In Door County, we don't get waterfront turnover very often. Waterfront properties tend to stay in the same family for generations at a time.
Last year, we were lucky enough to have two cottages on Pebble Beach, which sold almost instantly (I ran into one of the cottage's owners this week and they are loving their Sister Bay waterfront home!).
This week, we are concentrating farther north, on Europe Lake, between Ellison Bay and Gills Rock--and I have a hard time deciding which Door County inland lake is my favorite: Europe Lake, Kangaroo Lake or Clark Lake. They all have their distinct differences. I really love the peace and quiet of Europe Lake, with one side of the lake having no homes (that area part of Newport State Park, actually). So, as my readers know, it is rare when I list or sell something around or on Europe Lake--not much comes on market! I can count four sales of mine in 17-plus years.
Well, now we may have Sale #5. We are offering 470 Europe Lake Road, Ellison Bay, WI 54210, a seasonal, board and batten 1940s Cape Cod cottage on nearly 300 feet of shore, for $569,900.00. This is a sweet spot, close to the public boat launch, with a lot of shore line for privacy, a ton of "Door County charm and also a wood-burning fireplace for chilly evenings. In other words, it's your classic, quintessential Door County lake cottage. We don't have too many of these left! It's also on just over 2 acres of land (survey in progress).
This property offers three bedrooms, one bath, hardwood floors and the most picturesque setting imaginable! You can live in this seasonal cottage while you plan your new year-round home on the lake in Door County!
