Surrounded by mature trees and picturesque lake views, this architectural retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, craftsmanship, and natural beauty. From the moment you enter, handcrafted railings, rich redwood accents, and beautiful stained glass introduce the home's distinctive character. At the heart of its design is an innovative passive-solar envelope system, featuring a dramatic multi-story glass-enclosed space designed to capture natural warmth and help moderate indoor temperatures. Continue into the inviting living room, where soaring windows frame sweeping views of the lake and fill the space with natural light. The kitchen offers an induction cooktop, built-in oven, and a 2025 skylight, while the curved breakfast nook provides a charming setting for morning coffee overlooking the water. A formal dining room offers an elegant space for gatherings. The primary suite provides a peaceful escape with a walk-in closet, private bath featuring a jetted tub and separate shower, and an interior balcony overlooking the glass-enclosed space toward the lake. Downstairs, the finished walkout lower level offers additional bedrooms, a spacious family room, and a wood-burning fireplace. Step outside onto the elevated deck, where mature trees, abundant wildlife, and tranquil waterfront views create an idyllic setting for relaxing or entertaining. Situated on a generous double lot, the property also features a private dock, lake-fed irrigation, and hillside storage. For those seeking additional lakeside recreation, an optional lake association offers access to a shared beach area. Complete with geothermal heating and cooling and an attached two-car garage, this remarkable home offers a distinctive Lake Geneva waterfront lifestyle.

Waterford, located between Pontiac Lake and Cass Lake, is a lake-country and suburban Pontiac neighborhood with a chain of inland lakes and a patchwork of wooded parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Dixie Hwy and M-59 corridor, where marinas, diners, bait shops, and local storefronts set a practical, on-the-water rhythm. Mid-century ranches and classic lake cottages sit alongside newer builds, with curving roads that follow shorelines and canals. Pontiac Lake State Recreation Area frames the area with trailheads, beaches, and broad water views. The Waterford Cultural Center adds a civic anchor with performances and community programming. Summers read as pontoon traffic and picnic tables; winters shift to quiet streets and frozen-lake horizons.
