This extraordinary property offers the perfect blend of lakefront living, country charm, and modern comfort. Set on 4.7 acres of beautifully landscaped perennial gardens and mature trees for ultimate privacy, it features 118 feet of pristine lakeshore and breathtaking views from one of the highest points on the lake. The completely renovated main residence boasts over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, including a spacious main-level owner’s suite, gourmet kitchen, a cozy sunroom with stunning lake views, an indoor sauna, walk-out lower level and an open-concept floor plan ideal for entertaining.
