Really good responses here. I 'll add my vote to having a washing machine (we have a dryer too but only for rainy days, we try to use the clothesline when we can), a UV / filter set up for drinking water, a second refrigerator or freezer, a shed for storage, a big deck (it's often the biggest flat spot on an island) and non-carpeted floors so cleaning up the pine and hemlock needles brought in with wet feet is easier. If you can squeeze in a screen porch, I'd recommend that too, it's my favorite spot at our place. Lots of glass facing the Lake too!
