About this home

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Little York Lake history! Situated on nearly 90 feet of pristine lake frontage, 1837 Mountainview Drive E offers breathtaking waterfront views, a private dock, and endless possibilities for investors, owner occupants, or those looking to create a truly special lakeside retreat. Currently configured as a 6 unit property with a strong rental history, the property includes three separate buildings: a detached 1 bedroom cottage, a 2 unit building featuring two 2 bedroom apartments, and a 3 unit building comprised of three 3 bedroom units. Each unit offers excellent potential for continued rental income while leaving plenty of opportunity for updates and value added improvements. Looking for a lakefront residence with income potential? The 3 unit building could potentially be converted back into a single family home, allowing you to enjoy year round waterfront living while generating income from the remaining buildings. Whether you are seeking an investment, a vacation property, or a combination of personal use and rental income, this unique offering provides exceptional flexibility. Steeped in local history, the property is associated with the former Little York Ice Company, reflecting the era when natural ice harvested from Little York Lake supplied homes and businesses before modern refrigeration became commonplace. Ice harvesting was an important industry around the lake during the late 1800s and early 1900s, making this property part of Little York's rich historical story. Enjoy everything Little York Lake has to offer in every season including boating, fishing, kayaking, and swimming in the summer, spectacular fall foliage, and peaceful winter scenery. You will even have front row seats to the lake's beloved Fourth of July fireworks display. Properties offering this combination of waterfront living, proven income, redevelopment potential, and historical significance are exceptionally rare. Also listed as 5+ unit, MLS S1696737. The unit count was altered to reflect properly for the number of bedrooms and bathrooms on the syndication sites.
