About this home

Rare opportunity on Little Silver Lake - this isn't just a vacant lot, it's a nearly shovel-ready lakefront build package. 0.31-acre parcel with approx. 50' of frontage on clean, electric-motor-only Little Silver Lake, perfect for a year-round home or weekend retreat. Seller has already completed full architectural plans for a 993 sq. ft. home (schematic design, design development, and construction drawings), invested in professional interior/exterior design with finished renders, and hired a civil engineering firm to complete the required grading plan and survey for Lake County. Approx. $12,500+ in architectural and civil engineering work alone is included, plus additional design, builder, and insurance costs already invested. The lot has a newer septic system from the prior home, and Lake County has approved a septic variance to allow that system to serve the new residence (remaining variance and recording charges not yet paid). The prior home was demo'd; the new home footprint is designed to sit essentially in the same location. A local builder familiar with the site and plans is available as a referral if the buyer is interested - or bring your own builder. Buyer to verify all information, perform their own due diligence, and complete any remaining steps with Lake County to finalize permits. Fantastic chance to skip months of planning and uncertainty and step into a thoughtfully prepared lakefront project. Build now or hold and enjoy a hard-to-find Little Silver Lake location with much of the heavy lifting already done.
