What's special
Custom Contemporary Farmhouse on Nearly an Acre in a Lakefront Community Set on an expansive .938-acre homesite in a sought-after lakefront community, this distinctive custom-built residence blends Contemporary Farmhouse styling with refined Craftsman and subtle Prairie-inspired influences. Thoughtfully designed with character and functionality in mind, the home offers 4 bedrooms, including two private primary suites, and 3.5 baths. The striking exterior showcases clean architectural lines, classic gabled rooflines, a welcoming covered entry, and natural materials that create a timeless yet fresh aesthetic. Inside, the custom design continues with an emphasis on spacious living, natural light, and comfortable gathering spaces. Two primary suites provide exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or a private retreat. The generous acreage offers room to enjoy the outdoors while providing a sense of privacy rarely found in a neighborhood setting. The property backs to Corps of Engineers land and the lake, creating a peaceful natural backdrop with no immediate development behind the property. Enjoy the nearby community trails leading to Cottonwood Creek Park, the lake, and Cottonwood Creek Marina, making it easy to take advantage of the area's outdoor and waterfront amenities. Adding to the home's appeal, paid-off solar panels provide an energy-conscious advantage. This is a truly special property where custom architecture, expansive land, and a lake-oriented lifestyle come together in one exceptional setting.
