Stunning waterfront home in very desirable Rock Ridge Shores. This is a great cul-de-sac lot located in a peaceful cove with long range views of the main channel. The interior has been renovated with contemporary master-bathroom, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, windows.. Natural gas oven and gas grill hook-up outside of the deck. Master on main floor, easy yard maintenance and secluded driveway makes this lakefront property a find! Deep water year round with all the perks of being on a wide cove. With almost 130' of linear water-frontage, the open dock can accommodate a large boating vessel. Easy to show and paid hook-ups to county sewer would make this a great 4th bedroom at any point! New to the market in some time, it's a great mainly one floor home in a high demand geographical location by both car and boat. HOA is voluntary and it comes with a boat ramp if you opt in.
