The main level welcomes you with a soaring vaulted great room, floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace, and a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring stainless KitchenAid appliances, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry. A spacious dining area, full bath, laundry room, and expansive screened porch with tranquil lake views complete the main level. Upstairs, a private master suite awaits with a full bath and walk-in closet. Outdoor living is truly exceptional. Enjoy a covered hot tub and grilling area with bistro lighting, a lakeside firepit for cozy evenings, and a swing nestled by the shore. Professionally landscaped grounds offer privacy and natural beauty. Additional features include covered parking, a detached workshop, and a garden shed. Offered fully furnished and turnkey, this one-of-a-kind property is ideal for full-time living, a luxury second home, or a high-demand vacation rental.
