Discover the ultimate lakefront lifestyle on highly sought-after Columbia Bay, known for its breathtaking sunsets, sand-bottom for swimming off the pier and unbeatable location. This waterfront retreat offers one of the Chain O' Lakes' most desirable settings-just minutes to the interstate and Metra for easy commuting. Enjoy lake views from nearly every room, expansive multi-level decks. The spacious kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The spacious main-level laundry room doubles as a guest room with a custom Murphy bed and connects to a fully updated bath (2021). Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms and a full bath with a brand-new vanity (2024). Hardwood floors, newer lake-facing windows and doors, newer furnace with humidifier, newer water heater, garbage disposal, and composite seawall decking make this home move-in ready. The rare 3.5-car heated garage offers space for all your summer and winter toys, with additonal parking for up to 8 vehicles. A huge attic provides even more storage. Virtually all indoor and outdoor furnishings are included (purchased new in 2021), so you can start enjoying lake life immediately-just bring your suitcase (TVs, bourbon barrel, and wine/beer fridge excluded). Want the complete package? A top-of-the-line Atlas pier (24 sections), 6,000lb ShoreStation boatlift with side curtains, and a 2021 Bennington 25' LSB Tritoon (200hp Yamaha, only 160 hours) are available separately or together-everything you need to fully enjoy lakefront living. This is a rare Columbia Bay opportunity-schedule your private showing today!
