This beautiful waterfront Colonial with almost 4000 finished square footage has it all. Nature scenes abound from most every window. The two story Foyer has a sweeping staircase. On your left is the Living Room with built-in bookshelves and a helpful Library-style ladder. The Formal Dining Room with wainscoting is on your right. The eat-in Kitchen is huge and has a massive island. It is open to the sunny Family Room with fireplace. Both rooms open out to expansive decking. An office with shelving has its very own screened-in porch and is just perfect for work from home days. A Powder Room completes the 1st floor. Upstairs, the large primary suite has great closet space and a Zen-like bath. There are also three other Bedrooms and a hall bath, as well as a spacious Laundry Room on the second floor. The walk-out Lower Level has a tiled Family Room and a full bath, which is ideal for the pool. There's a heated pool and a lovely pergola. An added plus is a dock, providing access to the Five Mile River-fed Lake. A generator gives the owners peace of mind. This Lakefront home is tucked away for privacy with its magnificent views, but mere minutes to everything else.
