What's special

THE VIEWS! Exceptional views down East Lake Okoboji take center stage, with statement windows filling the open living space with sparkling blues. Expansive decks, including one at the water’s edge, provide prime vantage points and extend living right onto the lake. The total 5 bedroom (2 NCF loft bedrooms), 3.5 bathroom (1.5 in the garage) property has a host of updates to bathrooms, flooring, lighting, decks and landscaping. Completely remodeled is a large entertainment area in the upper level of the far-from-ordinary garage, which boasts 4 stalls, two with extra height, and in-floor heat. With the views and the updates, along with 50’ of Francis Sites lakefront, this property has so much to appreciate. Listing contains virtually staged photos.
