About This Home

As of April 2025

Be prepared to be captivated by this lakeside beauty in Lamplighter Cove, recently renovated and priced THOUSANDS BELOW APPRAISAL! It's chock-full of personality, charm, and character. In addition to 3 generous and enticing levels, it delights with nooks and crannies. It's in tiptop condition, continuously improved and affectionately maintained with great attention to quality and detail. Most every room provides a lovely lake view, and the aluminum, double slip, party deck dock with deep water access is a short, gentle walk away. Every level allows you to step out onto a covered porch, deck, or balcony to relish the view, and the new windows across the picturesque sunporch make that space especially inviting. There is a comfortable, family room on every level, each featuring a stone fireplace. The remodeled owner's suite on the main offers a custom wardrobe, accent wall with a beautiful built-in, and new glass doors to the lakeside deck. The upgraded bath features a double vanity with custom cabinetry, new mirrors, fixtures, glass shower doors, and a specialty free-standing tub with oil rubbed bronze claw feet. The second level was redesigned to add a second owner's suite with a lakeside balcony, a bath offering fashionable cabinetry, high-end fixtures, a huge walk-in shower, and large soaking tub. This suite also boasts its own winsome loft. The oh-so-pretty kitchen was upgraded in 2023 with new custom cabinetry, lighting, top-of-the-line fixtures, GE caf appliances, soft close drawers and doors, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, and a large free-standing island. A drive around back reveals a second, 2 car garage/workshop. The architectural roof, gutter guards, and HVAC are less than 5 years old, as is the beautiful circular driveway. There are so many new and upgraded features in this extraordinary home it's impossible to enumerate them all here. The only thing capable of luring the owners away from this home they love and have made exceptional is the opportunity to be close to twin grandchildren. You must see this one, so close to River Forks Park, Pelican Pete's and Skogies.
