Located approximately 250 feet from the lakefront, enjoy seasonal water views and the soothing sound of waves year-round. Inside, a spacious and functional layout offers generous living areas ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The living and dining rooms are highlighted by cathedral ceilings, while large windows fill the home with natural light and frame picturesque dune and woodland views. A wood-burning fireplace in the family room and a gas fireplace in the living room add warmth and character throughout the seasons. The home also features a 224-square-foot porch, perfect for enjoying summer evenings and lake breezes, along with dedicated office space, abundant storage, and a large two-car garage.
