The home itself is well placed along the waterfront of this private lake, with hundreds of feet of shoreline to explore. It's surrounded by trees to hide it from the road, for the ultimate in privacy. It was designed to be a retreat from the hustle and bustle of life, and all of the noise that goes with it. This private lake has fairly few homes allowed, to ensure the peace is forever. Inside, the owner copied a trusted floor plan that flows incredibly well and shows off the views to perfection.

The adjoining kitchen is the heart of this home, made for entertaining and sharing all along this huge open area. It offers counter seating, breakfast nook and a formal dining area as well, all designed to keep your guests close by and comfortable. A large roaring fireplace and stone wall dominates this room and accents the water view. Plenty of cabinets and countertops, to make this area user-friendly and inviting. The main suite is set off to one side, with everything that you'd expect to find in a true custom home like this. It has a separate thermostat just for this portion of the home. All rooms are very generous in size, and have views of the water or the trees. Designed with nature in mind, the house has a massive deck just off the main level, some of it being enclosed. Perfect for larger gatherings or just watching the wildlife coming down to the water each day. The back yard and far side yard were left open for a future pool area, if desired. Perfect for families and gatherings! Downstairs is unfinished but designed with expansion in mind. Tall ceilings, plumbing and electrical connections, and generous doors and windows for plenty of natural light. Still lots of room to add a detached shop or garage on the property as well.
