There is an unexpected quality to arriving at this property. At the end of a private lane, it feels like the kind of place where you naturally exhale peacefully, quietly tucked away, and set beside a lake in the heart of West County. Thoughtfully designed by architect Zack Stewart and built in 1975 as one of the founder's homes at Thomas Creek Ranch, this one-of-a-kind residence is the only home directly on the lake. Set on nearly a quarter acre and surrounded by shared open space, the home rests within a unique 12-home enclave spanning over 80 acres, offering space to connect when desired and privacy when sought. Designed to embrace its surroundings, the home captures views of the lake and forest beyond from nearly every room. Recent improvements, including new flooring throughout and a beautifully remodeled primary bathroom, bring a fresh feel while honoring the home's original character. The main level is centered around an inviting great room with a fireplace, built-in bookcases and cabinetry, and an easy flow between living and dining spaces. The kitchen, service area, and en-suite primary bedroom are conveniently located on the main level, creating comfortable day-to-day living. Upstairs, a spacious loft with a full bathroom and closet offers flexibility for guests, work, or additional living space. Life at Thomas Creek Ranch extends well beyond the home itself. Residents enjoy lake access for swimming, non-motorized boats, and fishing, along with a thoughtfully curated collection of amenities, including a pool, hot tub, sauna, pickleball court, walking trails, community gardens, fruit trees, berry patch, playground, game room, and barn with guest quarters and stables. The setting offers a rare combination of natural beauty, recreation, and connection, all just moments from town, yet feeling worlds away.
