CHANNEL LAKE WATERFRONT! You have just stumbled upon a home that blends waterfront living with old world charm, modern amenities, privacy and the quintessential views. Nothing to do but move in, relax and enjoy! Located on the sought after Chain of Lakes, Channel Lake is the northernmost lake which is considered one of the cleanest and amongst the best for fishing (both summer and winter). Once inside, feel the lakefront lifestyle and lavish amenities. Take in the open floor plan and tall ceilings. The heart of the home features a modern, upscale kitchen with gleaming hardwood floors, cherry and cream-colored cabinetry, light granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, retractable downdraft vent hood, under cabinet lighting and huge walk-in pantry. Keep the entertaining going in the formal dining area that overlooks the lake or retire to the charming living room with original, built-in cabinetry. NEW Anderson picture windows offer clear views and peace of mind with 20-year transferable warranty. French doors lead to a quaint sunroom with 3 walls of windows overlooking the lake complete with a NEW Vermont Castings Wood Burning Stove. Upstairs you will find 4 well-sized bedrooms where there is plenty of room for your family and guests! Master suite feels like a retreat with soaring vaulted ceilings, generous walk-in closet and spa-like master bath complete with double sink vanity with custom cabinetry, granite topped jetted tub, Kohler fixtures and enclosed steam shower with full body sprayers. If you’re not out on the lake, this home features a fully finished basement, perfect for entertaining. Newer vinyl plank flooring, large rec area, bedroom, full updated bathroom and additional bedroom space. Plenty of room for storage too! Step outside into the backyard where you’re sure to spend most of the summer days! A spacious flagstone patio is cut into the gently sloping lot for dramatic water views. The patio features a natural gas firepit that is ready to be lit at a moment’s notice and ample seating for guests. Once the sun sets, there are tiki torches piped to natural gas lines that create evening ambiance like no other. Hardwired outdoor fans to keep you cool on summer days. The gas grill and fire pit also have permanent natural gas lines-no running out of propane! Along the northern side of the house sit 2 raised herb gardens to grow your own organic salads in the summer. Take a quick walk down to the lake on the newly installed composite stairs. Stop half way down and relax and catch some rays on the mid-deck and take in the views of the generously landscaped terraces. Head all the way down the stairs to enjoy hours of fun on the lakes. A separate boat shed is newly remodeled and can hold all your lake equipment close by when you need it. You are high and dry on this lake location! PLUS, all NEW blown-in insulation with R-60 value will keep your utility bills down. Well water softening and purification system with new RO drinking water system installed. This is the perfect lakefront home that offers year-round activities within miles away. Wilmot Ski Resort and Richardson’s Farm. After a hot day, stop at Hansen’s for a scoop of ice cream. Summer and Winter wine walks in Antioch, Lake Geneva and Richmond! A must see!
