    Looking for the lake life?? You have found it on Balsam Court! This fabulous 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is move-in ready and waiting for you. As you turn into coveted Hickory Cove subdivision, you'll love driving by the park area and marina. Speaking of the marina, this home comes with a deeded boat slip (with lift) as part of the sale - an unbelievable value! Turning down quiet Balsam court, the cul-de-sac provides privacy and ease of backing up your boat trailer. There are so many updates waiting for you here - the roof, siding, and windows are all less than ten years old and in great shape. As you pull up, you'll note not only the heated two car garage, but also the side apron for parking your trailers & toys. Stepping inside the home, you'll find the large windows letting in light throughout the entire house. The main floor is an open-concept design, with each room sweeping to the next. The foyer is spacious and opens to the large family room where you can host and entertain friends & loved ones. From there you'll find the dining room, which could double as a main floor office for the remote workers. The dining room dovetails into the huge kitchen, where multiple chefs can work without bumping into each other. And the cook will never be out of the conversation, as the kitchen flows into the living room. The slider to the deck extends the fun, as the deck is amazing! You can either enjoy the solitude or invite all of your people to join you. Each of the four generous bedrooms are located on the second floor, with the main bedroom & ensuite stealing the show. The area is well lit, and the walk-in closet has plenty of space. The unfinished basement is a canvas waiting for your ideas, but does have multiple egress windows so you can plan on adding one or more bedrooms over time. This home is not to be missed if you are looking for lots of living space, natural light, and an opportunity to live the lake life!! Come, visit, and make this house YOUR HOME!
