HIGHEST AND BEST BY SUNDAY (8/27) AT 8:00 PM. Let me first introduce you to Ackley Lake, a sandy bottom beautiful little (65 acre) lake located in the Village of Paw Paw in Van Buren County. Access to our little private lake is only via a 10 ft tube under M-40. My husband & I first saw this cottage on Mothers Day 1999, we knew instantly it was to be our retirement home. We commuted between work (Comerica Bank- Livonia, Mi) until 2002 when my husband retired and the fun began (remodeling). We added a large addition almost doubling the size. It is now 3 bedroom 2 full bath with main floor laundry an open concept breathtaking home with gas fireplace in living room, lawn sprinkling, whole house generator, updated kitchen and bath that are amazing, tons of built in dry storage area in basement, dual docks on the 96 ft of frontage with new 2 year old roof and 2 car garage detached. This is also the only home on the lake to still have a boathouse and as long as it is maintained it is allowed to stay. just a piece of heaven. Ackley is an All-sports lake with great fishing & swimming with deepest spots around 15-16 ft. We have made wonderful friends & neighbors in our area. Paw Paw has great restaurants, wineries & lots of speciality shops. We have our own hospital located on Maple Lake & a large doctors complex just minutes away. I turned 82 last May and I'm finding things I truly enjoy are becoming harder to achieve. I plan to move closer to my family so I can continue to be an active part of their lives. We also have an additional lot right across the street that has access to the lake shared with 2 others and is the last buildable lot on the lake. We are selling both together, this is the listing for both. MLS for house only, #23031098. MLS for lot only #23031096
