About This Home
Just 30 minutes from I-65/SR 43, discover this stunning and fully renovated Lake Freeman waterfront home — the perfect weekend escape or an incredible short-term rental investment! With 75% of available weekends booked since the start of 2025 and $11,800 in future summer reservations, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath gem is ready to perform. Step inside and you’re welcomed by rich, thin plank hardwood floors that flow throughout, leading you into the expansive 24x13 primary suite — one of three en suite bedrooms. This suite is a showstopper, featuring vaulted wood ceilings, a gas fireplace, wet bar, and floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic lake views — the perfect retreat or reading nook. The generous walk-in closet includes built-ins, while the ensuite bath features dual vanities, ample storage, and a garden tub/shower combo. The second main-floor bedroom includes a beautifully renovated en suite bathroom with a faux Carrera tiled shower, a sleek new vanity, and wood-look ceramic tile flooring. The heart of the home, however, is the open-concept lower level, where a wall of windows showcases sweeping lake views and floods the space with natural light. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with soft-close custom wood cabinetry, high-end appliances, handcrafted wood backsplash and trim, and stunning concrete countertops, including an oversized island with seating for 8–10 — ideal for entertaining. The adjacent living and dining areas offer flexible layout options and blend seamlessly with the kitchen, creating a warm and social gathering space. Just off the kitchen is the third en suite bedroom, which feels like a boutique hotel suite. Its spa-like bath features a walk-in glass shower with black metal framing, a bench seat, and modern fixtures, plus a spacious closet hidden behind a stylish sliding barn door. Major updates mean peace of mind: metal roof (2022), new well, concrete driveway (room for 3-4 cars to park), retaining wall, and a massive lakefront deck. The serene and private beach offers a cozy firepit area and a brand-new swim dock with a ladder leading into shallow water perfect for swimming — only 3 feet deep near the shore, extending to about 15 feet. Also, this is only a 20 minute walk to the Madam Carroll!! So whether you’re looking for a high-performing Airbnb investment, a gorgeous lakeside getaway, or a combination of both, this Lake Freeman stunner has it all — incredible views, thoughtful updates, and unforgettable charm.
