Privately set on nearly 4.5 acres along the shores of China Lake, this distinctive three-story home combines thoughtful design, waterfront living, and a rare sense of seclusion. Inside, soaring ceilings and an extraordinary arrangement of windows fill the living room with light and frame the landscape, while hardwood floors, warm woodwork, and a stately brick hearth balance its scale. The spacious kitchen features abundant cabinetry and workspace, flowing naturally into the dining and living areas.
The second floor includes three generous bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a laundry hookup, and exceptional built-in storage. Naturally insulating cork flooring keeps each bedroom comfortable underfoot through every season. A sweeping staircase leads to the spacious third floor, where vaulted ceilings create an inviting setting for a home library, studio, or peaceful retreat. A fourth bedroom completes the level, giving guests a space of their own. The finished basement adds a built-in entertainment area with generous space for recreation and hobbies. The unfinished section includes a second laundry hookup and flexible space for storage or a future workshop.
Outside, mature landscaping and open lawn blend into the wooded surroundings. A switchback path winds through the trees to 232± feet of private lake frontage and a dock. The wraparound porch and spacious deck provide inviting places to enjoy the grounds from home. Years of thoughtful care are evident inside and out.
Though it feels wonderfully removed, Waterville and Augusta are both about 20 minutes away, keeping shopping and everyday amenities within an easy drive.
