This well-cared-for waterfront home sits along the shores of Locke Lake, offering over 100 feet of frontage and its own sandy perched beach area, a wonderful setting for swimming, paddling, boating, and enjoying lake life right from home. Inside, the open-concept kitchen and living area features a cozy propane fireplace and direct access to the wraparound, low-maintenance composite deck, creating an easy flow for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The first floor includes two bedrooms and a full bath, while the upper level offers an additional bedroom. The walkout lower level provides additional family room space with convenient access to the outdoors. Recent improvements include a new heating system and all-new composite decking. A large detached two-car garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, lake gear, and additional storage. Beyond your own private waterfront, enjoy all that the Locke Lake Colony community has to offer, with access to multiple beaches on Locke Lake and Halfmoon Lake, outdoor swimming pools, a six-hole golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball, playgrounds, a boat launch, marinas, and community recreation facilities. A great opportunity to enjoy a true four-season lake lifestyle in the heart of the Lakes Region.
