Resort-style lake living can be your new everyday in Lake of the Pines. The main level features a lovely living and dining area anchored by a double-sided brick fireplace shared with the kitchen, and slider access to the sizable front deck. The kitchen, our natural gathering spot, features solid cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and a sunny breakfast nook with views to the outside. Upstairs, the primary suite is a quiet retreat with access to a private deck, where treetop breezes and fresh mountain air start the morning off right. An oversized room above the garage provides flexible space for a game room, home office, or second living area. Additionally, there is a dedicated hobby/craft room to add further versatility. Outside, decks wrap around multiple sides of the house and showcase the pines that surround the elevated lot. The three-car attached oversized garage is already a win, but the detached storage garage with a workbench seals the deal for anyone who tinkers, collects, or even just needs extra storage. Newer roof and fresh exterior paint throughout. And then there is the community...zip around the lake in your golf cart with your toys hanging out the back and join all the fun! Lake of the Pines is a private gated neighborhood built around a 282-acre lake open to skiing, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, and fishing. Add in a golf course, pool, pickleball and tennis courts, bocce, sandy beaches, a clubhouse, and a lakeside dining room and bar, and you have a lifestyle that is genuinely hard to beat. Welcome home!
