More than you could ever expect! Completely renovated with a two-story addition, this home truly lives like new. Every major component has been updated-mechanicals, appliances, flooring, paint, closets, and gorgeous light fixtures throughout. The chef's kitchen features Taj Mahal quartzite counters, new induction cooktop, double ovens, abundant storage, and open flow to the eat-in area and living space. With 5 bedrooms (including a main-floor ensuite and lower-level guest suite) and 4 full + 2 half baths, the layout blends style and everyday functionality. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms include a dream primary suite with jaw-dropping walk-in closet, jet shower, dual vanities, surround-sound bath, and in-mirror TV. The second floor also boasts a true laundry room with custom cabinetry, plus a smartly designed double bath perfect for siblings. Guests can enjoy the Murphy bed suite in the lower level or the main-floor ensuite/home office with custom built-ins. The third floor impresses with a massive rec space and a fully equipped home theater. Outdoors, the backyard is designed for entertaining with a living area, pull-down movie screen, and plenty of space. A newly redone driveway accommodates 7+ cars plus a 2-car garage-making Lake Avenue living easy. Set in a prime location with effortless access to all three schools, making day-to-day life remarkably convenient. This is a home you must see to believe!
