Welcome to the quiet side of Chain O'Lakes living. Experience unparalleled privacy and scenic beauty in this stunning waterfront retreat, perfectly positioned along the tranquil Nippersink Creek with direct access to Pistakee Lake. Enjoy a uniquely private waterfront setting, with beautifully unobstructed views across the channel, creating a peaceful, natural backdrop that's increasingly rare on the Chain O'Lakes. Inside, the home features a bright, open-concept floor plan designed for effortless flow and modern living. High-quality Marvin windows throughout flood the space with natural light while perfectly framing the lush waterfront scenery. Pride of ownership is evident throughout, with extensive improvements completed over the past eight years, including updated electrical service, newer mechanicals, whole-house re-insulation, a tankless water heater, a newer roof, and a professionally sealed and encapsulated crawl space for added peace of mind. These thoughtful updates reflect years of careful maintenance and investment by the current owner. Step outside to an expansive deck that wraps along the side and rear of the home-an ideal setting for sunset dinners, morning coffee, or simply enjoying the calm, quiet water views. An added benefit: property taxes are notably lower than many comparable Chain O'Lakes waterfront homes, enhancing long-term affordability without compromising lifestyle. A detailed feature sheet is available outlining the many improvements made throughout the home, including Marvin windows, soffit and fascia, garage door, water filtration system, flooring, appliances, and numerous additional updates. Come discover a rare combination of privacy, views, value, and pride of ownership on the Chain O'Lakes. Floating dock/ramp on seawall not included.
