Pristine Island Lake retreat with 270 feet of waterfront on 2 acres! This stunning 3+ bedroom, 3-bath home offers a bright, sunny main floor with an open-concept living, kitchen, and dining area featuring south facing panoramic lake views through a wall of windows and glass doors leading to the lakeside deck. The all-new kitchen showcases beautiful cherry cabinets, Cambria countertops, a center island, and stainless appliances, and flows seamlessly into the living room with a new wood-burning stove. The main floor also includes a convenient mudroom/laundry, a ¾ bath, and a bedroom. Upstairs, newer wool carpeting runs throughout, with a nicely sized bedroom featuring a ¾ en suite bath, and a spectacular primary suite with vaulted ceilings, two sliders to a private deck, a full bath with deep soaking tub, and a generous 7x8 walk-in closet. The newly finished lower level offers a spacious rec room with high end LVT flooring, a den/office that could serve as a nonconforming bedroom, and a utility room. Outside, you’ll love the beautifully landscaped yard with a boulder enclosed fire pit area, raised garden beds, a woodchip walking trail, and a 2+ car garage. Additional highlights include a newer roof and a new furnace. A rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful waterfront living—this immaculate Island Lake home is truly one to see!
