Overview
Lakefront house on its own spit, with a dock, boathouse and 180° water views.
Ember Point sits alone at the end of Heron Spit with water on three sides. In autumn the maples around it turn the whole lake copper — hence the name. The house was extended and re-roofed in 2015 and has a wood stove that heats the main floor on its own.
Below the lawn there's a 40-foot dock and a boathouse with a sleeping loft that the current owners use as a summer guest room.
