About This Home

As of April 2025

Summer is just around the corner, but your dream lakeside escape is ready now. This rustic retreat brings back the ease of a slower time, with outdoor spaces and water access that make every season unforgettable. Just a block from a marina and minutes from hiking trails, a lakeside park, and the Village, its location is unbeatable. But step inside, and the lake views and inviting charm make it clear—this is a place to slow down and stay awhile.
Set on a generous lot with RV and boat parking, the fully fenced yard is designed for both beauty and ease. A drip system feeds trees and colorful shrubs that come alive in spring, while evergreens add year-round vibrance. At dusk, landscape lighting casts a warm, welcoming glow. The idyllic front porch, made for rocking chairs, invites you to sit back and take it all in. A walking easement from the backyard leads to the lake, where a dock offers the perfect spot to launch a kayak, take in the views, or cast a line and listen for the splash of a jumping fish.
Inside, the living room captures lake views and offers multiple seating areas, anchored by a cozy rock fireplace. The adjoining sunroom with bench seating is perfect for a bar, game area, or quiet spot to take in the water views. A wall of windows and a French door connect this flexible space to a backyard designed for entertaining, complete with lounge seating, outdoor dining, and a garage workshop with ample storage.
The kitchen blends modern convenience with timeless charm, featuring high-end KitchenAid appliances, including a dual convection oven. Vintage windows fill the dining room with natural light, while a cozy nook makes a great office. Three bedrooms include one with lake views, while two bathrooms—one upgraded with subway tile and a heat lamp—add to the home’s thoughtful details. Well-chosen upgrades include bamboo floors, a 220V outlet for a hot tub, a prewired emergency generator panel, a fully vacuumed attic with new hypoallergenic wool insulation, an expanded and resurfaced asphalt driveway, and an upgraded foundation.
Adventure by the lake isn’t just a dream—it’s right here, waiting for you. Schedule a showing today!
