Reading the numbers
Three bedrooms and three baths is a clean, rare arrangement — every bedroom can be a suite. What needs flagging is the total: 4,227 sq ft dated 1955 is roughly twice what a 1955 house of this room count would have been, so the living area almost certainly includes later additions that did not move the year-built field.
That matters for how the house is described. "Built in 1955" is true of the original structure and misleading about the whole. At $437 per square foot the rate is unremarkable, which is exactly what you would expect if the assessment is tracking a modernised footprint.
Reading the frontage
Lakefront is a mapped-polygon flag against Lake Pocket: the parcel reaches the water. Shoreline length, dock, seawall and lift are not recorded.
Unplatted parcel. Given the likely additions, the permit file is the document that matters most here — it will show what was built, when, and whether any of it required a shoreline review.
What this page is not
- It is not a listing. Nothing here says the property is for sale.
- It is not an appraisal. Just value is the county's assessment figure for its own tax year.
- It cannot separate the 1955 original from later additions.
