The Space:
Impressive 3,200 sq ft home with a large backyard with a hiking trail running through it. Explore it and find a peaceful stream, allowing you to immerse yourself in nature. While the home doesn’t sit on the lake, you have private lake access where you can jump off the dock or hop into your boat, which you can also conveniently dock. You can relax by the fire pit in the backyard or lounge in the hot tub conveniently placed right outside the game room in the basement. The basement also includes a half bath with a separate shower, a full-sized refrigerator, and a 65" TV for all the best in game-day excitement. Whether you’re planning for a weekend of fishing, boating, and swimming, or if you need a relaxing escape complete with year-round access to our huge park-style charcoal BBQ and fireside chats, or you're looking to spend a few days playing competitive games with your buddies in the game room or the yard, this is the spot for you.
