    What's special

    Luxurious Cherokee Lakefront Retreat with Spectacular Lake Views - Your Dream Home Awaits! Discover unparalleled elegance and comfort in this stunning all-brick, 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom. 4,500± square feet of Cherokee Lake masterpiece with 242 feet of lakefront property set at the end of a cul-de-sac offering much privacy. Perfectly blending modern upgrades with timeless charm, this home offers breathtaking lake views and exceptional living spaces designed for relaxation, entertainment and enjoyment. The current owners purchased the home in October of 2015, and the home has since undergone major remodeling and upgrading. Home Highlights: Spacious & Modern: 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, including a sprawling Master Suite with expansive lake views. Elegant Master Bath: Indulge in luxury with heated marble floors, a marble shower with waterfall-inspired tile, a zero-entry shower overlooking the lake, a sleek European wall-hung toilet, an elevated freestanding double vanity, and whirlpool-style bathtub. Sunroom Oasis: Bask in natural light with extra-large picture windows framing stunning lake views, complete with its own ductless heating and air conditioning unit for year-round comfort, perfect for watching the sunrise with a morning cup of coffee. Chef's Kitchen & Open Living: 12' ceilings grace the kitchen, dining, and living areas, featuring GE Slate appliances, new hardwood floors, upgraded crown molding, and a cozy propane stone fireplace. Lower-Level Retreat: Includes a kitchenette, family room, bedroom, and full bathroom-perfect for guests or extended family. Plus, areas that can be utilized as a wine cellar, extra storage, and workshop, with a second garage for mowers, boat toys, you name it. Third Floor Flex-Room Above Double-Garage: Lots of extra sleeping and storage options. Outdoor Living: Enjoy magnificent views from an upper-level deck with a ceiling fan and a separate upper-level grilling deck for added convenience. Downstairs, unwind on the expansive stone paver patio. Premier Lakefront Features: The owners also designed and had built one of the finest private boat docks on Cherokee Lake. Constructed out of aluminum, this dock was built to require minimal maintenance and last a lifetime. No staining or dealing with rotten or warped boards! Your boat's hull will stay clean and structurally sound with the electric boat lift that can even accommodate a Tri-toon. Large storage cabinets, ceiling lights, electrical outlets, and convenient water/electric service from shore provide more dock amenities. Because of its recent upgrades, renovations and uniqueness, this home was recently appraised by a Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser (without consideration for the dock) to arrive at a fair market value and the listing price. Significant Upgrades: 2016: Sunroom addition with 6-foot Andersen energy efficient windows, sliding glass doors, and covered decks. Plus, major renovations to kitchen, living, dining, and master bedroom. 2016: Two new Trane heating and air units and a renovated master bath. 2021: New oversized 80-gallon water heater and expansive stone paver patio. 2022: New architectural shingle roof. Walk into this house, don't worry about replacing anything and not want for anything. This home has it all. Simply move in and enjoy this slice of paradise. This home is a rare gem, blending luxury, functionality, and prime lakefront living. Don't miss your chance to own this extraordinary property. Live the Cherokee Lake Life!
