About This Home

As of November 2022

Rare opportunity on Berkeley Lake! This fully renovated dream ranch home sits on 280 feet of shoreline with gorgeous views overlooking a private wooded yard and lake. The grand kitchen and great room feature a vaulted nickel-gap and beamed ceiling which allows the natural light to spread throughout this amazing space. You can even enjoy the amazing views from the beautifully honed, 14-foot marble island. A wonderful home office and butler's pantry space is conveniently located at the carport entrance, which leads directly to the kitchen. This ranch home has three bedrooms on the main level, including the oversized owner's suite with peaceful sunset lake views. The second bedroom includes a lovely en-suite bathroom. The details and craftsmanship continue as you descend to the terrace level. Attention to detail is evident throughout the space with such features as the farmhouse sink and beautiful reclaimed wood siding. This inviting space includes an in-law suite with den generous primary bedroom and a private secondary flex-room. The outdoor space is stunning and even includes a precious playhouse built above the detached garage. The 280 feet of shoreline has been upgraded with a new 80 ft boardwalk leading to the new covered dock and play area. This amazing renovation also includes a new roof with 50-year Architectural Shingles, Spray Foam and Upgraded Attic Insulation, Double-Pane Windows, an additional Five-Ton Trane High-Efficiency HVAC unit, Trex Rain Escape Under Decking above the Terrace-Level Patio, Underground Utilities, Underground Drainage System, Cedar Post and Beam Covered Patio, New Dock, Landscaping with Play Area and Insulted Playhouse, and Tennessee Limestone Foundation Walls.
