About 517 Private Road 7908
Lake Life is all about the view and this property delivers one of the best on Brooks Lake. Situated deep within piney woods, this quaint cabin is on 2.5 lots featuring 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, updated kitchen with granite, sun porch and fireplace. A large deck is perfect for morning coffee or just enjoying the view. Maybe even catch a glimpse of the resident bald eagle. The home could use some further cosmetic updating but importantly, the HVAC was new in 2026 and the roof was replaced in 2019! What is difficult to convey in photos; however, is the feeling you will get just driving into the neighborhood. Brookhaven In the Pines reminds you of summer camp, camping trips, and just a time when the world seemed less complicated. You will want to relax here, cast a line, exhale and forget your troubles. The forest is accessible from your back door for nature hikes and birdwatching. Brooks lake is a tranquil, no wake, spring fed. private lake of approx. 70 acres. The lake is surrounded by over 700 acres of forest. Brooks is stocked with Bass and Crappie and a constant level is maintained. There is a voluntary POA that maintains the lake and roads. Come experience the ambiance of Brooks Lake. You tube video upon request.
