About This Home

Nestled among the pines on a quiet road near Lake Sylvan, this 4BR/3BA retreat offers a rare combination of architectural drama and everyday ease. The great room stuns with a 28-ft vaulted ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a stone fireplace that becomes the natural center of life here—whether it’s morning light over coffee or evenings with friends.
The open layout flows easily into a lofted sitting area above and a finished walkout below, where a Jøtul wood stove adds warmth and charm. A fully updated wet bar, granite kitchen, acacia hardwood floors, and new carpet add comfort throughout. The heated 2+ car garage has space for toys and tools, while multiple outdoor spaces—porch, patio, deck, and firepit—offer options in every season.
Optional Beach Club membership provides access to a private beach, park, and boat ramp on Lake Sylvan—no seasonal maintenance required. Simply show up and enjoy. Located minutes from championship golf, trails, and lakeside dining.
While it shows beautifully online, what you won’t see in the photos is how it feels. That's something you can only experience in person. Call today to schedule a private showing—because this is more than a property. It’s your next chapter, waiting to be lived.
