Natural light and clear lake views pour through three living room windows—including two oversized panes—dressed in classic plantation shutters. The adjoining dining area features a chandelier, a side window with plantation shutters, and a built-in hutch with glass cabinetry. Just beyond, the bright kitchen offers two windows overlooking the lake and oversized side porch, an eat-at bar topped by a skylight, and a walk-in pantry. It comes equipped with white Frigidaire appliances, including a 4-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher, wall oven, and a newer side-by-side refrigerator with water and ice dispenser. LVP flooring flows through the main living spaces into the comfortable family room, which features a fireplace, built-in TV alcove, shelving, cabinetry, and a built-in desk. Newer dual-pane sliding glass doors frame more lake views while opening directly onto the oversized covered porch, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow and a convenient secondary entrance. Down the hall, the primary bedroom includes two windows (one with a privacy awning), mirrored wardrobe doors, a ceiling light/fan, and a linen closet. The spacious ensuite primary bathroom is highlighted by a Safe Step jetted walk-in tub ($14K), alongside a separate walk-in stall shower, LVP flooring, dual sinks with a vanity area, and a water-saving dual-flush toilet.
