About This Home

As of September 2014

This nine year young custom built Craftsman style home is situated in a warm, friendly community in the Riverside section of town, along Lake Carnegie. It is one of a few lakefront properties larger than an acre, and has more than 150 feet of waterfront on the western shore of the lake. This home has year round amazing views from every window. The seven bedroom, seven and a half bath home, offers over 8000 square feet of living space. The Main House has three floors all easily accessible by elevator or custom staircase. The Carriage House includes a guest suite and a four car climate-controlled garage and is attached to the Main House with a glass covered pergola. The 1200 square foot wrap-around porch is a dream with timeless appeal. It's easy to imagine yourself relaxing there on a beautiful summer evening. The paver driveway and walkway welcome you to the front door, where upon entering, you have an unobstructed view of the lake. The backyard boasts a 2200 square foot bluestone patio with two seating areas, an Herb Garden, Rose Garden and a hidden Lakeside Patio, just feet from the water. Custom-milled, American Cherry wood is found throughout the house with 5" and 3" planked floors, as well as the window and wainscoting surrounds. The ceilings are 10' on the first floor, 9' on the second and up to 11' on the third. The high quality of the construction throughout the home is easily discernible. No detail was left undone. This is a very special, unique, custom designed and built home for the most discriminating buyer.
