Two sets of glass sliding doors, with transoms for extra light, open the space up to the back porch and allows the soothing sound of the West River into your home. There is a wonderful main level bonus room with oversized windows that could function as an office, playroom, or even a main level bedroom. The main level also has a full bath, separate laundry room, and access to the two-car garage. Upstairs, enjoy dramatic views from the primary suite with its wall of glass.

The third level is a spectacular oasis, called the “lighthouse room”; here, you have the most expansive views, another private balcony, and a full bath. This could be an entertainer’s dream space, or an ultra-private bedroom suite. The two-car garage boasts high ceilings and ample space to store vehicles and equipment for the yard and boating. The home was framed with 2 x 6 exterior walls and includes a whole house sprinkler system, water treatment system, ceiling fans in all the key rooms, and a lovely dining table chandelier.
