Escape to your own private retreat where modern comfort meets serene, lakeside living. This expansive five-bedroom home is designed for those who appreciate space, light, and tranquil water views, all from a beautifully maintained property.
As you step inside, the open layout and large windows immediately draw your eye to the calm waters of the community lake. One of the home's great joys is the ever-present wildlife; it's not uncommon to see a pair of geese gliding across the water or a crane wading near the shore, all visible from the comfort of the sunroom, kitchen, or main living areas.
Home Features:
Five spacious bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, offering plenty of personal storage.
Multiple flexible living spaces, including two separate living rooms ideal for a formal gathering area and a relaxed family space.
A quiet library a perfect nook for a home office or curling up with a book.
A bright sunroom that serves as a perfect year-round spot to enjoy the view.
Three full bathrooms designed to comfortably serve a household.
An attached three-car garage providing ample space for vehicles and storage.
We've loved the peace and quiet this home offers and the beautiful, open views that change with the seasons. It's a unique find for anyone looking for a restful place to call home.
