**LOOKOUT HIGHLANDS** 3,030-square-foot, 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom lake house with screened in porch and bed swing is located on a premier 2.94-acre wooded lot with 450 feet of lake frontage. It is the perfect layout for a family home, a peaceful retirement haven, or a legacy retreat for generations. The expansive main living area is open-concept centered around a striking stone wood-burning fireplace and a massive, custom marine-treated wood kitchen island, which transitions through a kitchen pass-through to a separate dining area. When you step outside from the living area you will find the large screened-in porch and deck, and you are just steps from the water's edge with new dock. Every oversized bedroom serves as a private space with its own attached full bathroom, highlighted by a primary en-suite with large library/sitting room. Designed for ultimate practicality and ease, the home also has an oversized laundry room with built-in cabinetry and full washer/dryer, a secure fenced-in backyard, a two-car garage with a workbench, and a separate outbuilding perfect for a four-wheeler or extra storage. This location is just minutes away from McLemore Golf Course and Cloudland Canyon, and within the coveted Lookout Highlands community. You can relax and enjoy a secure, picturesque lifestyle complete with hiking trails, waterfalls, and breathtaking mountain-top views! This home is also available as a turn-key purchase with furnishings negotiable and ''move in ready'' for summer. Don't miss seeing this lakefront gem, and schedule a showing today.
