Description

A fully redesigned custom waterfront home on The Island in The Lakes, with a private boat dock and lake views from the yard, the balcony, and the primary suite. Everything has been done — this one is move-in ready.

On the water

Lakefront lot on The Island with a deck at the water's edge and a private boat dock. East/west exposure for the sunsets. Built-in BBQ off the family room and a full-length covered patio.

The Redesign

Reimagined, redesigned, and expanded to take advantage of the views. The kitchen was built for cooking and hosting: custom cabinetry with pull-outs, gas cooktop, wall oven, warming drawer, Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, granite counters, and a copper-top breakfast bar. Solid wood floors, custom windows and doors, and extensive interior and exterior lighting throughout. Foam roof, tankless water heater, dual pane windows, and EV charging in the garage.

The Layout

Three levels. Upstairs, the water-view primary suite has a jetted tub, custom steam shower, and walk-out balcony. Bedroom 2 is a mini-suite with an all-in-one wet bath; bedroom 3 has rolling bookcase closet doors. The main level has all the common areas with the living room, kitchen, family room, laundry room and a half bath. The walk-out lower level holds a full guest suite/office with its own exterior entry — separate living quarters or a dedicated workspace.
