About This Home

Welcome to this solidly built 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath brick home that offers space, structure, and incredible potential. Set on a generous lot with a stunning view of the lake from the large back deck, this property is perfect for those looking to personalize a home with strong bones and timeless appeal. The main level offers a flexible layout with a fifth bedroom currently serving as a laundry room, along with both a full bath and a half bath—perfect for everyday convenience or accommodating guests. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, providing plenty of space for family or visitors. One of the standout features is the full walkout basement with tall ceilings and poured concrete walls—no block foundation to worry about here. The basement remains unfinished, providing a blank canvas for additional living space, recreation, or storage. There's also an additional laundry hookup located downstairs for flexibility. The home includes an attached two-car garage and plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and picturesque lake views. With some cosmetic updates—such as new flooring and a bit of elbow grease—this home has the potential to truly shine. Whether you're looking for your forever home or an investment opportunity, this property offers a rare combination of space, location, and structural integrity.
