Come see this extraordinary house at an extraordinary value. This gorgeous home sits on nearly a half-acre of landscaped paradise w/104 ft of Ken Lake waterfront & has the floor-to-ceiling windows you need to take it all in. Will you take advantage of the private hot tub just outside the swanky 5-piece primary bathroom? Relax knowing the solar panels are keeping the temps and the power bills down? Entertain in the sunken living room while serving canapes made in your Viking range? Perhaps you will escape to the detached custom 10x14 studio for some solo yoga or tend to your seedlings in the greenhouse. Or, better yet, invite a friend to kayak with you on the lake after a quick set on the neighborhood pickleball court. Your dream contemporary home has over $250K of recent updates, in addition to the already renovated kitchen. Custom closet systems, brand new dock, updated lighting, doors, hardware and all those little details that take a house from nice to WOW. Yes, the solar panels are paid off, the blinds are motorized, the furnace is new and the a/c works great. Upstairs has two bedrooms, two full baths and a loft overlooking the living room. The main floor holds the kitchen, dining, living, huge walk-in pantry, laundry room and 3/4 bath. Downstairs is the 3rd bedroom (big enough to be three rooms) with its own entrance from a covered patio. Beside the 2-car garage is a finished office. Too much to list, ask your agent for the updates list and tour today!
