The third level provides a versatile escape with a king bedroom, ensuite bath, and kitchenette ideal as a guest suite, home office, or recreational space.
Outdoors, the lakefront terrace is a true showpiece, complete with a fire pit, grill, Green Egg smoker, and panoramic water views an ideal setting for sunset gatherings or hosting. Inquire for private pool plans and renderings, offering the opportunity to further enhance both lifestyle and rental performance.
