Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this impressive home boasts a myriad of upgrades and versatile living spaces. Step inside to discover a gourmet kitchen adorned with Bertazzoni stainless steel appliances and modern, thoughtful cabinetry. Throughout the home, luxurious stone accents create an elegant ambiance, complemented by the warmth of two inviting fireplaces. The home's expansive three stories provide bountiful space, including two primary suites on the main floor, offering an ideal and flexible layout. Additional living spaces are designed for comfort and tranquility, featuring cozy green views framed by floor-to-ceiling expansive windows that invite abundant natural light and promote relaxation. Custom closet cabinetry is outlined throughout the home, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and practical storage solutions. Adding to its expansiveness and tasteful design, two levels of the home are fully outfitted with additional living spaces, complete with kitchens, laundry facilities, and bathrooms, making it ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodations. The outdoor space is equally grand and designed for peaceful enjoyment and entertainment. A magnificent outdoor fireplace creates a cozy focal point, while a screened-in porch offers a comfortable retreat. Surrounded by wooded trees, the concrete deck provides ample space for relaxation. Revel in the tranquility of spectacular sunrises over peaceful waters and the serene beauty of moonlit reflections, complemented by the soothing sounds of nature. This pristine Lake Hartwell cove is renowned for its calm waters, serving as a haven for both recreational and professional fishermen. The strategic rear-lot positioning of this residence maximizes breathtaking lake and scenic views. In accordance with the Corps of Engineers' regulations, a mature tree canopy provides refreshing summer shade while preserving stunning lake vistas year-round. A beautifully paved cart path, surrounded by exquisite landscaping, leads directly to the lake. New upgrades to the deck, including a touchless canopy and a boat lift, offer unparalleled ease and convenience for ultimate enjoyment of the water. The Moonlight Bay subdivision ensures a finely managed community with its well-maintained paved roads and protective covenants. Residents also benefit from access to the neighborhood dock, offering extra boat parking and swimming access, all just a short walk or golf cart ride from your door. This remarkable residence truly embodies the essence of refined lakeside living, perfectly suited for an expansive single-family estate, a multi-generational dwelling, an executive corporate retreat, a high-yield vacation rental, or an enticing fractional ownership opportunity.
