The property has been groomed and maintained like a country retreat including a nine-hole executive style golf course. If you don’t like golf, no need to worry about if this property is for you. A golf course has all the things wildlife and outdoor/nature enthusiast love. There are hundreds of trees, pines, natural plantings and grasses all with lush green fairways and paths weaving throughout.

Well, that’s just the start! Wait until you see the five bedroom, 3-1/2-bathroom home nestled on the bank of the 7-acre spring fed, fully stocked lake. The home is almost laid out to accommodate a variety of lifestyles or uses. On the upper level, it’s a completely updated mix of high-end rustic and contemporary design. The quality vaulted tongue and groove ceilings and woodwork highlight the functional open concept floor plan. It does an amazing job of featuring the homes location and outdoor views to allow the owner to enjoy the million-dollar view of the lake and property from the family rooms large windows. You’ll see why the row of Adirondack chairs and binoculars are there because that’s where you may spend a lot of your time if you’re not actually on the lake. The rest of the main floor has a modern kitchen with Light Maple cabinets, a foyer, a powder room, a dining space with a gas fireplace, a large master bedroom and master bath. The master bath has a whirlpool tub, ceramic shower and dual vanities offering everything needed to get ready for your day or relaxing in the tub after a long one.

This level also has a dining area, big laundry room, 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and an enclosed porch area that the current owner uses to store his winter supply of firewood. Because this space is at a lake level, you can enter and exit without even going through the main level. It might just make a great guest quarters, related living or Air-BNB. Out the door is the lakeside walk out patio with stairs coming down from the main floor outdoor deck. You are literally just steps away from the shore, fishing dock and pontoon boat, which is included in the sale.
