It boasts a double-decker dock, a powerful generator, stunning lake views, and is just a short walk from the house to the dock. As you enter the main level, be prepared for breathtaking lake views. The sun-drenched, open-concept living area offers a spacious setting, featuring a dining area for 12 and a kitchen that would delight any chef. Imagine a large island with ample storage and seating, double ovens, a 6-burner gas stovetop, a convenient microwave drawer, a coffee bar, and extensive counter space. Planning a weekend gathering?

Step through one of the two glass doors onto the deck and fire up the hardwired gas grill for a al fresco dinner while enjoying the lake and backyard views.
The main level also features the exquisite primary bedroom, along with a charming second bedroom and a full hallway bath. The primary bedroom, with floor-to-ceiling windows, offers a daily retreat to nature’s tranquility. Step out onto the private deck to enjoy one on one time with the outdoors. In this sanctuary, the primary bathroom transforms into a lavish retreat, featuring a luxurious wet room, dual shower heads, and a spacious walk-in closet with a closet system. A built-in Bluetooth speaker with lights invites you to channel your inner rock star while showering!
