I have listed a new property at 1394 Black Lake North Shore in Tay Valley. See details here

Forget the dock that bottoms out by August. Here, you've got roughly 15 to 20 feet of water off the dock, the kind of depth that means proper swimming, diving, and a boat that stays afloat even through a dry summer. Welcome to 1394 Black Lake North Shore, a three-season cottage made for long days on the water and easy evenings with nowhere else to be. Inside, the open floor plan keeps everyone in the same room whether they're cooking, playing cards, or just landed from the lake. A spacious sunroom stretches across the waterside of the cottage, with oversized windows framing the lake and surrounding trees. It's the natural morning-coffee spot, the rainy-day retreat, and the place you'll still be sitting long after the sun starts to disappear. Three bedrooms give you room for family and friends, while a simple one-bath layout keeps cottage life exactly that: simple. Outside, the deck overlooks the water, with a hot tub positioned for late-night soaks beneath the stars. A detached garage with power gives you plenty of space for boats, tools, toys, and hobbies. The practical pieces are already handled too, including a steel roof and low-maintenance finishes, leaving more of your weekends for swimming, paddling, boating, and doing very little at all. Deep water is one of those cottage features you can't easily add later. Here, it comes with the property.
