Experience lakeside living at its finest! This charming home located directly on the North Reservoir of the Portage Lakes features timeless design, natural beauty, and modern comfort. Set at the end of a tranquil private-feeling street, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath waterfront home sits on nearly a half-acre landscaped lot complete with abundant native plants and fruit trees/bushes. The home features an updated kitchen boasting maple cabinetry and granite countertops as well as an open living room/dining room with exposed beam detail. The main level also includes a wood-burning fireplace, making it ideal for cozy evenings or entertaining. Sunlight pours into the glass-wrapped sitting room offering serene views of the lake creating the perfect backdrop for morning coffee or an evening unwind. There are beautiful views from virtually all rooms in the home! Heading outdoors, the property expands into a beautifully landscaped double lot designed for both leisure and privacy. Mature trees add charm, while the expansive deck and brick patio provide effortless spaces for elevated entertaining. The dock was newly added in 2022 and has extra space for relaxing waterside. With direct access to the no-wake North Reservoir, you’ll enjoy peaceful kayaking, paddle-boarding, or simply watching the lake shimmer at sunset around the large fire pit. A lake home is incomplete without exceptional utility, and this one delivers! An oversized, detached 2-car garage built in 2009 provides premium storage and hobby space, complete with 30-amp electric service for an RV. Updates within the past few years include the roof, gutter guards, front porch, 200-amp electrical service, a solar-powered battery back-up system, water softener, and walk-in shower spa in the primary bathroom. For the buyer seeking tranquility, space, and a touch of understated luxury in one of Portage Lakes’ most coveted waterfront settings, 3719 Bower offers more than a residence—it offers a refined lakeside lifestyle.
