This beautiful 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, updates, and scenic views. Enjoy peace of mind with a new roof and new gas HVAC, along with updated kitchen appliances that make everyday living a breeze. Inside you'll find two fireplaces - one gas for easy ambiance and one wood-burning for cozy nights in. The home flows effortlessly from room to room, with inviting living areas and picturesque views of the lake. Step outside to take in all this property has to offer, including a large two-car garage, and extra wide driveway for ample additional parking, and a shed with power - great for a workshop, hobbies, or extra storage. The beautifully landscaped yard bursts with color throughout the seasons, showcasing blooming azaleas, camellias, and hydrangeas. Nature lovers will especially appreciate the serene setting, as the lake is home to migrating diving ducks, birds, eagles, and mallards. A true connection to the outdoors right from your own backyard.
