Description

**Home Sweet Lake Home with 2 Master Suites!** Enjoy the best value for your money in this property. This charming 4-bedroom, 3-bath custom built lake home on 3.91 acres offers an idyllic country retreat with quick and easy access to local bases, beaches, and shopping centers, making your commute a breeze. Two driveways off Old River Road welcome you to this home, which has an full-width covered front porch and screened-in back porch. A brand-new dock, built earlier this year, allows you to walk out over the serene lake, shared with only one other property owner. As you enter the home, you'll be immediately drawn to the stunning floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace (gas), perfect for cozying up on the cooler winter days ahead of us. The home features big, tall windows and an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings with beautiful tongue-and-groove, wood and ceramic tile floors, a very large dining area and it will all be just PERFECT for those large family holiday gatherings! The spacious kitchen is a dream with ample solid wood cabinets with the bottom cabinets all having slide-out shelving, tons countertop space in beautiful butcher block, and sleek black stainless appliances. The home has cedar siding, all newer windows (2018), two water heaters (2018), a newer HVAC system (2018), and roof was installed in 2005. Plus, the home is prepped for generator hookup. This home has two master bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom, providing the ultimate in comfort and privacy. The split floor plan offers additional seclusion for the main master suite. The second master bedroom is ideal for family members or guests, ensuring everyone has their own space to unwind. The remaining two bedrooms are generously sized, sharing the hall bath, and each offers picturesque views of the back yard and the lake. Don't miss the second-story bonus room - this hidden gem is accessible via the pull-down attic stairs in the fourth bedroom. It is fully finished, heated and cooled and has it's own closet. It would be perfect for a private office, craft room, or climate-controlled storage (hello, Spring/Fall/Christmas décor storage area). The possibilities are endless. Again, the outdoor space is equally impressive as the home. Start your day with a cup of coffee on the screened in back porch. Then lunch and dinner cooked in the covered grilling area with your very own entertainment bar, plus another stunning view of the lake. The backyard is fully fenced and also includes a covered carport with an attached workshop, with it's own A/C. The front yard has a large barn/shop with a loft (sold As-Is). Termite Contract in place, Clear WDO/Termite Inspection in April 2024, Septic pumped & inspected in April, 2024. There's even a Loquat tree right outside your back door, yum! This one is all the things. Peaceful. Serene. Scenic. Comfortable. Spacious. Don't miss this opportunity. This country retreat is ready to be your Home-Sweet-Lake-Home. Schedule your showing today!
