398 Gilbert Bay Lane, Wollaston

Some cottages make you wait for the view. This one doesn't.Walk through the door and Wollaston Lake is right there in front of you. Thoughtfully updated and fully winterized, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage has been set up to be comfortable, practical and easy to enjoy in every season.The main living space is open and bright, with the kitchen, dining and living areas all oriented toward the lake and opening onto a large waterfront deck. In summer, you have 100 feet of private shoreline with deep, clear water for swimming and boating. When the weather turns cooler, the wood stove makes the family room the place you'll want to be.There's plenty of useful space beyond the cottage too. A dry boathouse keeps the waterfront gear out of the way, while the garage/workshop and large loft above give you room for projects, a games room, gym, studio or whatever else you need cottage space for.The primary bedroom has its own ensuite with a generous walk-in shower, and a Generac automatic backup generator takes some of the worry out of winter weather and power outages.But the setting is what ties it all together: big Wollaston Lake views, deep water off the shoreline and a cottage that's already set up to enjoy year-round.Come for the view. Stay because everything else works.
