The best time for a lake house is right before summer, so come check out this incredible home!! Star Lake is charming, quaint, and full of stocked trout and largemouth bass. Great location to swim, paddleboard, fish, kayak, or have a campfire above the terraced gardens. Enjoy the beautiful scenery with 40 feet of waterfront. This is a non gas engine lake, very clear water, one of the cleanest urban lakes in King County, with a firework show every fourth of July. Very cute and updated remodeled cottage. Real hardwoods, maple cabinetry, open concept kitchen and floor plan, kitchen bar, stone countertops, gas stove, living room that overlooks the lake, brand new carpet in bedroom, wrap around deck for entertaining. This is turn key, with top of the line washer and dryer, kayak and peddle boat included. Serene and private, and yet close to all amenities. I-5 on ramp is .7 miles, Soundtransit is exactly 1 mile, The Commons mall in Federal Way is 3 miles, with every shop and restaurant you can imagine. Large lot with mature trees and privacy hedges, raised beds, gardens, roses, herbs, flowers, large front patio. This would make an excellent short term rental as properties on this lake rent for $700 a night and are always booked. Upside is one could potentially make 2 separate entrances as there are bathrooms with showers on each floor an outside door to access the lower floor, . Very large quarter acre lot, possibly room to build another home. Opportunity awaits!
