MLS # 24017248 (Michigan Regional Information Center (MichRIC))

Historic charm and a rare opportunity to have waterfront property on Dayton Lake. This 1860's cottage was once a train depot in the town of Dayton. Many years ago, it was made to be a 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom cottage. The historic charm of the fieldstone and limestone chimney, wood stove, wood beams and wood floors, make life very cozy here. If you are looking for a water view from the cottage, this isn't it. Just steps away (384 steps) from the cottage is 250+ feet of Dayton Lake frontage that gives you the opportunity for a dock, boat, fishing, canoe/kayak, picnic, party, sunbathing and so much more. This is a rare opportunity to get on a beautiful, private lake in Southwest Mich. Includes parcel 11-05-6750-0001-00
