About This Home

Set on the shores of all-sports Youngs Lake, this waterfront retreat is the kind of place people picture when they say they want ''a place on the lake.'' With private frontage and your own dock, mornings start with coffee by the water and evenings end watching the sun settle over the lake. The home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with space for everyone to gather. The living room is open and comfortable, designed for long weekends and lake days that turn into late-night conversations. Upstairs, a cozy loft-style space adds extra charm--perfect for additional sleeping space, reading, or a quiet place to unwind. Step outside and the property truly shines. A lakeside gazebo creates the perfect shaded spot to relax after a swim or spend an afternoon watching boats drift by. Two additional storage sheds and a garage/shed near the water make it easy to store lake toys, tools, and everything that comes with waterfront living. Offered fully furnished!! Hot tub not included.
