About This Home

HIDDEN GEM LAKEFRONT mid-century modern home offers timeless design complete with your own
dock on the totally private, Shickshinny Lake. Enjoy all that this lake has to offer-powerboating, water
skiing, kayaking, swimming, excellent fishing in our well stocked lake. This inviting and cozy home features three spacious bedrooms, along with 2 bathrooms, 2 car garage,
finished lower level, hot tub. Stunning lake views abound where you can enjoy the sunshine or
unforgettable sunsets or watch the ducks or boats from either the upper deck, lower patio area or relax and unwind on the beautiful trex pergola, or under the willow tree where endless lake days await. The main floor showcases wood and LVP floors with beautiful lake views, complemented by abundant
closet and storage space. If you love to cook, let’s begin with the heart of the home, the kitchen that has been beautifully updated and designed to be used. Stainless steel appliances, dual fuel range and brand new microhood with 400 cfm for strong exhaust. Also, an additional exhaust system has been installed to keep cooking odors at bay. Lots of cabinet space and many drawers that make organizing a cinch. The lazy Suzan’s in both corners,
uppers and base cabinets allow easy access to utilize these often-wasted spaces. Many pull outs also
make for ease of storage. Gorgeous granite countertops (not your common entry level granite), tiled backsplash, and a center island
that houses more drawers and a nook to tuck away the trash and is the perfect spot for holiday baking.
Recessed lighting (with color changing lights) along with a center ceiling fan. Opens to dining area with many custom-made features. A decorative wall accent that boasts artificial
glowing flames and customizable changing-colored lights and a small, functional heater. The base cabinet
below is an added and useful touch. Also, custom made is the intriguing light fixture and clock, both made
out of oars. Large living room with enough windows to watch the lake activity from indoors or go out the center
door to the upper deck. Trex deck is large enough for outdoor furniture and is the perfect spot for the gas
grill so you can grill while enjoying happy hour. 3 bedrooms, one very large with Jack/Jill closets. This bedroom has a door to the attic, which is another
excellent storage area for those Christmas items. Upstairs bathroom has larger, walk in shower and a large linen closet. The hallway boasts an additional
storage closet. Downstairs boasts a finished, wall to wall carpeted walk-out lower level with gas fireplace (perfect for a
party sized game room). Full bathroom and laundry area. Large back yard for your 4-legged friends,
every member of the family has their own favorite corner here. With a finished walk-out lower level (perfect for a party sized game room) and a dedicated yard for your 4
legged friends, every member of the family has their own favorite corner here.
