Lake views set the tone from the moment you arrive. Calm water, shifting light, and a sense of privacy that is hard to find inside a gated community. It feels tucked away, but everything about the home is built for everyday living. New roof and one new HVAC already in place. The main level lives easily. True ranch layout with vaulted ceilings that open the space and pull in the view. Hardwood floors run through the core living areas, grounded by a fireplace in the family room and a dining area positioned to take in the water. The kitchen is substantial and well thought out. Gas cooktop, stainless appliances, custom finishes, and solid doors throughout. It's the kind of space that works just as well for a quiet morning as it does when the house is full. A dedicated office sits on the main level, set apart enough for focus without feeling disconnected. The primary suite is generous, with tray ceilings, two walk-in closets, and a bath designed for function and comfort. Dual vanities, a jetted tub, and a separate shower all in place. Downstairs, the finished walkout basement expands the footprint in a meaningful way. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a large recreation room that opens directly to a 15x32 patio and the backyard beyond. There's also a substantial unfinished area ready to be built out or kept as storage, depending on your needs. The setting carries outside. A circular driveway offers a welcoming approach, and the deep two-car garage gives you room to spread out. The structure and systems are solid. The finishes are clean and ready for someone to make their own. Quality construction, a waterfront lot, and a flexible layout that works now and adapts over time. It's a rare combination of move-in ready and open-ended potential in a setting that speaks for itself.
