The property includes a gated, code access entry gate leading to a 5,300-sf custom home, built in 2015, with 6 bedrooms,  6.5 baths, 5 car garage and spectacular views overlooking the grounds and lake. Built with high quality craftsmanship and materials, the house is low maintenance and energy efficient. This two-story home is constructed with a metal exterior roof, metal clad double pane windows, and the attic has foam insulation with additional foam between the 1st and 2nd floors for sound.

From the foyer you can enter the paneled 5 car garage with lots of storage, the back patio, a metal staircase with custom iron railing accessing the 2nd floor and  the 1st floor living area.

The 1st floor living area has a large “L” shaped living area with wood burning stone fireplace and dining area with a wall of windows overlooking the lake. A large open kitchen is in the center of the house with a Subzero refrigerator, Thermador gas range and other appliances. Two bedrooms with private handicap baths (one with a shower and the other a tub), a large utility room and a half bath complete the lower level. 

The 2nd floor has three guest bedrooms with 3 private bathrooms, a large 1-bedroom apartment with full kitchen and laundry room and bonus room. The apartment has all Thermador appliances and a small balcony ideal for enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while overlooking the lake. 

All of the floors are wood plank in appearance but made of porcelain tiles. The ceilings are 10’ on the 1st floor and 9’ on the second with can lights and ceiling fans. All counter tops in the kitchen and bathrooms are made of granite. There is a 5’x10’ safe room inside the house, and a propane powered generator to provide power for the entire house to supplement the existing electrical service.
