Lake House
A lake house is a type of vacation home that is located near or on the shore of a lake. Some of the things to look for in a lake house are:
- The view and access of the lake. You want to choose a lake house that has a stunning and unobstructed view of the water, and that has a private or public dock, beach, or boat ramp for easy access to the lake.
- The condition and design of the house. You want to inspect the structural and functional aspects of the house, such as the foundation, roof, plumbing, heating, cooling, etc., and the aesthetic and practical features, such as the layout, style, furniture, appliances, etc.
- The activities and attractions of the lake. You want to research the type and quality of the lake, such as the size, depth, clarity, temperature, fish, wildlife, etc., and the recreational and leisure options that the lake offers, such as swimming, boating, fishing, skiing, etc.
- The rules and regulations of the lake. You want to be aware of the legal and ethical issues that affect the lake house, such as the ownership, zoning, permits, taxes, insurance, and environmental protection of the lake and the surrounding land.
