Some homes captivate from the moment you arrive; others leave an impression that endures long after you've left. This extraordinary waterfront estate accomplishes both. Perfectly positioned on a private hillside cul-de-sac, this sprawling all-brick and stone ranch commands one of the most breathtaking aerial water views imaginable. Set on an exceptional 150 feet of private shoreline, the property is one of only 18 exclusive residences surrounding a pristine private lake, where crystal clear waters, sandy beaches, and a composite pier create an unparalleled resort inspired lifestyle. An expansive driveway welcomes guests to the oversized three-car garage before arriving at a charming front porch that sets the tone for the home's warm sophistication. Inside, a spectacular vaulted foyer imm ediately frames panoramic lake views, creating an unforgettable first impression. Adjacent to the foyer, the elegant vaulted dining room offers picturesque views of the manicured front grounds while providing the perfect setting for intimate dinners or grand scale entertaining. Just beyond is an extraordinary vaulted eat-in kitchen beautifully appointed with 36 inch hickory cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, double oven, a reverse osmosis system, an oversized preparation island, and a breakfast bar overlooking the dining nook. Surrounded by panoramic lake views on three sides, the breakfast area seamlessly transitions to a spacious composite deck and an exceptional three season room. Designed to embrace its remarkable surroundings, the three season room offers uninterrupted views of the lake, beach, and patio, creating the perfect retreat for every season. Flowing effortlessly from the kitchen, the dramatic vaulted family room showcases custom built-ins, a stunning brick fireplace, and walls of windows that place the tranquil waterfront scenery at center stage. A private bedroom wing, thoughtfully separated by its own entrance, offers ADA compliant hallway and doorway widths, three generously sized bedrooms, and two full bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms enjoy spectacular water views and are connected by a well designed Jack-and-Jill bath featuring a virtually zero-threshold shower and separate dual vanity area. The third bedroom is conveniently located adjacent to an additional full hall bathroom. Occupying its own private wing, the luxurious primary suite is a peaceful sanctuary overlooking the lake. Sliding glass doors open onto a private composite deck with elevated views of the patio and shoreline, while the suite is complemented by an expansive walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath featuring an oversized whirlpool tub, steam shower, dual vanities, and a private water closet. The main level is further enhanced by Brazilian teak flooring throughout, a private executive office, and a well appointed laundry room complete with a dedicated dog wash station. The finished walkout lower level evokes the warmth and character of an upscale mountain lodge, featuring treated fire-resistant timber throughout, an impressive custom bar, spacious media and recreation areas, a cozy fifth bedroom, a full bath with sauna and shower, and direct access to the lakeside patio. A separate workshop or recreational storage area with double door exterior access provides exceptional flexibility for hobbies, watercraft, or recreational equipment. Additional exterior storage, conveniently accessed from the patio, offers ample space for lake toys, outdoor furniture, and lawn equipment. Completing this exceptional residence is the peace of mind of a whole house generator. Offering an unrivaled combination of luxury, privacy, and resort-style waterfront living, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the lake's most extraordinary properties.
