Easy access to all the recreational activities that lake front living has to offer, this home is a dream come true for those seeking a peaceful retreat or an adventure-filled lifestyle. From the moment you step inside, you'll be drawn to the attention to detail that went into updating this home. The open floor plan creates a spacious and inviting atmosphere, perfect for both everyday living or a private get-away. The bright and open sun room and living room are a true highlight, offering spectacular views of the lake through large windows that invite natural light to flood the space. A beautiful fireplace with new gas log insert anchors the living room. Whether you're relaxing with a book or hosting friends, this space is a place of comfort and serenity or spacious entertaining. The adjacent unencumbered dining room provides the perfect spot for casual meals or gatherings, and opens to the delightful updated kitchen featuring stainless-steel appliances, shaker cabinets and quartz counters and has easy access to the patio and yard for outdoor dining and entertaining. One of the standout features of this wonderful home is the second full bath in the primary bedroom, which is completely updated with stylish fixtures and finishes.

For those hoping for extra space, the desirable full basement with exterior entry provides easy access to all the mechanicals and a large versatile open area. Whether you need storage space or envision creating a finished lower level with additional living areas... maybe a big bunk room or recreation room for the kids or extra guests... the basement offers many possibilities. This home is not just a place to live but a gateway to a lifestyle filled with outdoor adventures and time on the lake. Plus, just minutes away from Glacial Park and Nippersink Creek, you'll have access to some of the best hiking and kayaking spots in the area.
