About This Home
Welcome to lake living at its finest on West Lake! This custom, newer built, KLH home was designed for those who want modern luxury and year round waterfront views. Floor to ceiling picture windows frame the lake from nearly every angle, turning every season into a private show and making indoor/outdoor entertaining effortless. Step inside to an open main level floor plan that flows seamlessly from the chef's kitchen into the dining area and family room. The kitchen is outfitted with a full chef's appliance package, a generous brushed stone island, marble perimeter counters, walk in pantry, custom on site built cabinetry, and a custom range hood finished with a marble inlay edge. No detail was overlooked. The family room centers around a cozy gas fireplace and custom built-ins that provide extra seating. Completing the main floor is a charming powder room conveniently located just off the kitchen within the custom mudroom and drop zone. Adjacent to the mudroom, a second walk in pantry and storage closet offers discreet space to keep everyday essentials neatly out of sight from guests. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private retreat. Expansive windows capture the lake, making it the crown jewel of all the bedrooms. The spa like bath offers a tiled shower, custom cabinetry, refined modern finishes, and a large walk in closet. An upstairs laundry room adds to your everyday convenience. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath, with a fourth bedroom and third full bath just down the hall. Outside, a gas firepit with expansive concrete patio and fenced yard invite relaxed evenings by the water. The dock stays with the home. Need room for lake toys, seasonal gear, or holiday decorations? A full 4-foot crawl space spans the entire basement, delivering exceptional storage without sacrificing living space. Still not enough storage space? An extra storage shed is located on the property for all your extra lake toys. Whether you're seeking a full time residence or a waterfront escape, this home delivers both lifestyle and practicality in one beautiful package. Schedule your private showing today, homes like this on West Lake don't stay available for long!
