This three bedroom contemporary will definitely wow your guests. Enjoy the views of the lake through the walls of windows in every room or from the expansive deck. The impressive great room was added years ago featuring a stunning masonry fireplace perfect to light during the winter months when waiting for the snow to fall. A loft, currently used as an office, overlooks the great room. Plenty of room for entertaining with this home's open floor plan lined with charming exposed beams and gleaming hardwood floors. The primary suite upstairs offers seclusion and includes ample closet space, gorgeous views of the lake, and full bath with stall shower, jacuzzi tub, and bidet.
