About This Home
As of April 2021This charming lakefront home is a must-see. Enter through the gated gravel driveway and step into this beautifully renovated ranch that is perfect for year-round living or for a weekend escape. The great room is open and airy with vaulted ceilings and skylights and flows into the kitchen and dining area with beautiful lake views. The kitchen has a Viking gas range and butcher block counters. The master bedroom is entered through sliding barn doors and is a cozy retreat with it's stunning stone fireplace and vaulted ceiling with beams. Closets are hidden by more sliding barn doors and the attached master bath is well-appointed. A second bedroom and full bath complete the space, all with hardwood floors. There is plentiful outdoor living space all overlooking beautiful Lake Zoar. A balcony off the dining area, a patio outside the lower level, a grilling area in the side yard, and a deck right on the water's edge. The fully fenced-in yard is charming and well thought out with mature gardens and trees. This beautiful and cozy lakeside retreat is loaded with charm!! Wait there is more, the walkout lower level is currently unfinished, but offers much potential. You will love the combo wood/oil fired boiler!!! Keeps this charming home warm and cozy!
