Waterfront living in highly sought-after Kettenring Hills! Tucked along a beautiful lakefront setting, this thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers nearly 3,000 square feet of living space and the kind of everyday views most people only enjoy on vacation. Start your mornings with coffee on the expansive screened porch overlooking the water, spend afternoons fishing from your private dock, and unwind each evening surrounded by peaceful lake views and mature trees. Inside, the home features an open and inviting layout with a first-floor primary suite, spacious family room with soaring ceilings and a woodburning fireplace, and a large eat-in kitchen with pull-out cabinetry, abundant storage, and direct access to the screened porch. Quality touches throughout include six-panel wood doors, French doors, ceiling fans in most rooms, and generous storage options including attic storage and a spacious attached garage. Upstairs you'll find two large bedrooms and a full bath, while the walkout lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a large recreation area, workshop space, abundant storage, and potential for a fourth bedroom, home office, or hobby room. A covered patio beneath the porch creates an additional outdoor gathering space just steps from the water. Situated on approximately .43 acres within the desirable Tinora School District, this rare waterfront opportunity combines privacy, convenience, and room to grow. An insurance claim for roof replacement has been approved, providing additional peace of mind for the future owner. The home's generous square footage, waterfront setting, and thoughtful layout offer tremendous potential for cosmetic updates that could further enhance both value and enjoyment. Opportunities like this—combining location, water frontage, quality construction, and room to make it your own—are increasingly difficult to find.
