Unique waterfront property on Crystal Lake includes a gazebo with deck. 21.5 tons of rip rap for the bulkhead was added (10/2025). The lush landscaping provides major privacy including a circular drive, mature trees, fountains and other water features. Impressive architectural details and major upgrades are evident from the New Gate (2026) with a covered porch enhanced by brick walkway leading to two massive front doors with glass panels. The huge foyer includes a soaring cathedral ceiling with skylights and offers impressive water views from the living room with an open wall of floor to ceiling Anderson windows. Crown molding, wide baseboards, shiny hardwood floors, gourmet kitchen and luxury baths make this an unique opportunity.
