1008 Lake Way Dr Niceville, FL 32578

One of Niceville's most admired homes can now be yours! A 2003 Parade of Homes winner, this spacious and amenity-filled design skillfully blends traditional and contemporary features into a home for today's active lifestyle. This all-brick home is perfectly sited at the widest point of Lake Henderson so you can always enjoy panoramic views. The gently curved paver driveway and lush landscaping add a polished finish to the exterior. Gracious double doors open into a welcoming high-ceilinged foyer accented by burnished wood floors and brightened by an arched transom. The living room window wall brings the waterviews inside and bathes the room in natural light. This is a room comfortable enough for a crowd or a couple. Any meal will taste better in the beautifully appointed dining room. Wainscoting, double crown molding, French wall sconces, and custom window treatments will make your guests feel very special. (The dining room chandelier is negotiable.) Custom cabinets, granite counters, work island, hearth-like cooktop surround, upgraded appliances--all these kitchen design elements make your feel like a chef even if you're not! Enjoy morning coffee and casual meals in the large breakfast nook with its sparkling waterview! Relax and catch up on the day's events or watch a movie in the spacious family room with its big screen TV (conveys) and the surround sound system. When it's time to unwind, the master retreat offers a refreshing spa-like ambiance. Open to the deck and to lake views, the bedroom area is spacious and airy. Pamper yourself in the oversized soaking tub or the stone and glass block rendezvous shower. Large closets are located between the bedroom and the bath area so bathroom moisture doesn't penetrate your clothing. Two additional bedrooms and baths on the main level are finished with crown molding and large closets. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite bath. The other opens directly into the hall bath/powder room. Use the laundry for extra storage or craft space since there are additional counters and cabinets here. This area was also designed and built for a future elevator to the lower level. The lower or terrace level gives new meaning to the term "flexible space." The main room in this light-filled area is currently used as a home office & library. The attractive gas fireplace, handsome bookshelves, and wood floors create a feeling of comfort and relaxation. This area would also make a wonderful in-law suite, separate apartment for grown children, nanny suite, etc. because there is also a kitchenette here plus another bedroom and bath area. In all, this area measures about 1300 SF. Depending on your hobbies and talents, there is an additional 1898 SF of space which is sheetrocked, and centrally heated and cooled. Currently used for archived books and papers as well as storage of other large items, this area could be converted to other uses. As it is, your resident woodworker, furniture maker, crafter, handyman, auto or boat mechanic or restorer will think this space is heavenly! In fact, your kids could even roller skater here. This area has been constructed with marine concrete with a triple moisture barrier so your treasures are safe from moisture intrusion.
