Rare waterfront ranch! This one's nearly lakefront and full of surprises! Tucked just one house off Bangs Lake at the wide opening of a channel, this one-level home gives you front-row water views without the front-row price. And yes-it comes with its own new private pier so you can jump on your boat right from your backyard. Inside, the open floorplan and vaulted ceilings bring in tons of light and space you might not expect in a ranch. The kitchen is both stylish and practical with new appliances, granite counters, and lake views to enjoy with your morning coffee. The living room is anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace and a wall of windows-plus there's a bright office with French doors just off the main space. Three bedrooms, including a primary suite with a jetted tub and separate shower, offer room for everyone. And don't miss the bonus room-perfect for workouts, movie nights, or game days. Outside, there's a brand-new roof, patios, a dual fuel generator, and a seawall to keep your shoreline tidy. The attached two-car garage has attic storage with pull-down stairs, and there's a full dry crawl space for even more room to stash your stuff. Just steps away, owners also have access to the 5-acre sandy beach, park and boat launch through the Lake View Villa Association. Waterfront ranch homes near Bangs Lake don't come up often-especially ones this updated and move-in ready. Come see how close lake life can be!
