This home offers a rare opportunity to customize your dream space in a premier, forever-private setting. While you plan your aesthetic upgrades, enjoy true peace of mind knowing the major mechanicals are already handled: newer furnace, A/C, and water heater (2024), along with a water treatment system (2023). Designed for entertaining, the layout features a partially finished walkout basement and two expansive decks overlooking your private corner lot and preserved lake views. Whether you envision a modern lakeside masterpiece or a cozy sanctuary, the heavy lifting is done-now it’s ready for your finishing touch.
