What's special

Lake views, beach access, completely renovated in 2024, and just one home from Commerce Lake. 1045 Clara has got it all going on! Being just one house away from the neighborhood beach on all-sports Commerce Lake, this ranch home has lake views from the expanded front porch and bright living room, and the neighborhood boat launch is just down the street. As soon as you pull up to the home you'll notice the significant investment and remodeling the sellers have undertaken in the last two years, inside and out. Through the front door, you are greeted by warm hardwood floors throughout much of the main level. The living room provides lake views and plentiful natural light through the walls of windows, and cathedral ceilings help to make the open floor plan feel even larger. The living rooms flows seamlessly to the dining area and into the full renovated kitchen. The kitchen is highlighted by a unique gold hood fan above the induction cooktop range, with other top-of-the-line appliances included. The kitchen offers plenty of counter and cabinet space between the wall cabinets, sit-at island, and built-in coffee bar area. The main level is rounded out by the private living wing with a very generously-sized primary suite, second and third bedrooms, and a main full bath. The basement adds great living and entertaining space with a flex/theater room (theater chairs negotiable), office, and full bath. From the basement you have access to the 2-car garage, which includes a separate storage room accessed from the garage as well. The neighborhood beach is a spacious lot at the end of Clara, with a beach and roped off swimming area and raft, greenspace, and a play structure. Call to schedule your tour soon!
