Redone in a carefully curated mix of coastal modern with vintage undertones & brand new HVAC, Blue Cottage on Lake Forest has a fresh new look to match its timeless design, with gross rental projections into the $90,000s (see photos). The coordinating vibe is open and airy, comfortable and quaint, contemporary and classic - the quintessential summerhouse for all seasons - a house with good bones that will stand the test of time with very little effort. Playing off the home's generously proportioned spaces, a cool wash of color makes it live even larger than it already does. The perfectly volumed, open kitchen/living/dining area creates a comfortable flow that extends onto porches in both front and back. Each of three bedrooms two up and one down with a master on each floor -
