Lake Life Starts Here! Wake up to peaceful water views, spend your afternoons cruising the lake in your fishing boat or kayak & end each day watching breathtaking sunsets from your own backyard. This beautifully maintained, one-owner lakefront home offers the perfect blend of everyday comfort & year-round vacation living. Built in 2003, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath two-story home features over 2,200 finished SF plus an unfinished walk-out basement with rough-in for a future bath, giving you endless possibilities to create additional living or entertaining space.

The beautifully appointed kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring built-in appliances, pull-out pantry storage, stainless steel appliances, wine refrigerator, center island, and an open layout leading to the recreation room. Step outside onto the expansive composite deck--the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while overlooking the lake or host family & friends after a day on the water. Upstairs, you'll find 4 generously sized bedrooms, including an impressive owner's retreat with double tray ceilings, a spa-inspired ensuite featuring a corner jetted tub, separate shower, & two walk-in closets. Outside is where this property truly shines. Enjoy summer days in the 18' x 33' pool surrounded by spacious decking, relax on the patio, or head down to your private dock for an evening of fishing or a peaceful ride on the stocked lake. With trolling motors only the lake remains quiet & serene. Additional features include a 3-car garage, storage shed, fenced yard, 6-panel wood doors, new HVAC (2019), new HWH (2023), & a brand-new roof & skylights (2025).
