Listing information updated 5/28/2026 at 11:43am

Immerse yourself in breathtaking natural surroundings and enjoy the 'good life' afforded with serene lakeside living. This spacious home, brimming with natural light and offering over 2,000 square feet, is a perfect setup for year-round living, includes water views from every room in the home, and features updates aplenty throughout. On the main level you'll enjoy a welcoming living room with mantled gas fireplace, an island kitchen with extended top, a breakfast area, a full bath, and a fully-equipped laundry room. The upper level features new LVP flooring and fresh paint, three spacious bedrooms including a primary bedroom with sitting room, abundant closet space including a huge walk-in, an impressive luxury-styled bath, an office space, and a generously-sized vaulted family room literally surrounded with gorgeous lake views from both ends and includes a convenient walkout cantilevered terrace. Below everything is a dry crawl that's accessed via a hatch (located in the pantry) that offers additional space for longer-term storage needs. The backyard is quaint, includes a deck ideal for enjoying the morning sunrise, summer barbecues, or peaceful sunsets with your favorite beverage as the day turns to the calmness of the night. And let's not forget your very own pier too that's perfect for casting your line, taking a refreshing dip, or launching your small craft/kayak (trolling motor only,10hp limit). Additionally you'll welcome the spacious two car garage as well as a bonus exterior, side spot for that third vehicle. Updates include new carpeted stairs (2026), LVP flooring (both levels, 2026), bathrooms (2023), paint (full interior, 2026), deck staining (2026), and roof (2023). Although property is high and dry, flood insurance may be required (owner currently pays around $100/month); buyer to apply due diligence. Located close to parks, shopping, restaurants, pubs, hiking trails (Moraine Hills State Park), and so much more, this home is a "hidden gem" and ideal for a stress-free, year-round vacation-like lifestyle.
