About Lakeshore

Lakeshore is where people move when they want a porch, a big oak out front and a lake at the end of the street. Most homes date from the 1920s to the 1940s, and many have been carefully restored.

Weekends start at the farmers market on the square and end on the lake trail. Inventory is tight, so homes that are priced well tend to go quickly.

Typical homes
1920s–40s cottages, farmhouses and Tudors
