Delavan Lake Breaks $1 Million Mark for 2014

     Delavan lakefront property finally started heating up this year with the first sale of over $1 million.  The property, located at 3020 North Shore Drive, sold for $1,080,000 in a cash transaction last week.

     Situated on 221 feet of prime Delavan lakefront, the home has a wooded North Shore entrance winding down past a Frank Lloyd Wright designed barn to the secluded waterfront setting.  The building consisted of four bedrooms, four bathrooms, with a walkout lower level.
     While in need of some updating, the construction was solid and the property was well maintained.  Whether or not the home will be renovated or razed is yet to be seen.

     Also selling last week was a prime South Shore parcel with 104 feet of level frontage and marvelous sunset views.  The parcel, located around 3117 South Shore, sold for a bargain $780,000 and stretched over 1300 feet deep encompassing over 2.9 acres of land.

Delavan Lake First Half 2023 Real Estate Update

Image
      Sales of Delavan Lake properties remained constrained for the first half of 2023.    The lack of inventory was the main culprit along with home owners reaching for excessively high valuations.      For the first half of the year, we saw three lakefronts sold compared to only one last year.    Interestingly enough, the value of the one sold last year exceeded the total sales price of the three sold this year.      Lake access sales were equal with 19 homes being sold this year and 19 being sold last year as well.    The price range for lake access homes sold this year started at $124,000 for a small cottage in the Delmar subdivision and increased to $460,000 for a three bedroom ranch in the Ravenswood subdivision at the west end of the lake.    The home in Ravenswood originally listed for $545,000.      Lake Access Condo sales slowed to 13 in 2023 compared to 20 in 2022.    Units ranged from $43,400 for a condo/hotel room in the Lake Lawn Resort to $410,000 for a two bedroom condo
