Thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, this home blends space, comfort, and elevated finishes throughout. A dramatic two-story foyer with a retractable chandelier welcomes you inside, opening to a formal dining room, private office, and an impressive great room with soaring windows and a stately fireplace, all perfectly framing the lake beyond. The main-level primary suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a spacious walk-in closet, in-room laundry, and a spa-inspired steam shower. The chef's kitchen is equipped with a walk-in pantry, granite countertops, premium Thermador, Sub-Zero, and Electrolux appliances and flows seamlessly into a bright breakfast area and bar space featuring a double-tap kegerator.

The walkout lower level features 9-foot ceilings, a spacious recreation area, wood-burning fireplace, additional bedroom and full bath, along with unfinished space ready for your vision. Enjoy true lake living with a beachfront patio, seawall, and direct access for boating, swimming, and summer fun. At the rear of the home, the multi-level decks have been fully renovated and freshly stained, complemented by updated landscaping. Additional highlights include a new roof in 2019, whole house security system, circular driveway connecting a three-car attached garage to a three-car detached garage with a built-in workbench, plus an optional invisible fence. A MUST SEE! This is more than a home...it's a lifestyle on the water.
