About this home
WATERFRONT PROPERTY! Welcome to your private lakeside haven on the shimmering shores of Locke Lake—a place where mornings begin with soft ripples on the water and evenings end with golden reflections dancing across the surface. Every detail of this impeccably cared-for, fully furnished home invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the beauty of lakeside living. Step inside and feel the warmth of the open-concept design, where light pours through the windows and the view of the lake seems to follow you from room to room. With everything on one level, life here feels easy and graceful—whether you’re sharing coffee on the deck, hosting friends for a weekend retreat, or simply watching the seasons change from your favorite chair. The lower level offers endless possibilities for expansion—perhaps a cozy guest suite, an artist’s studio, or a peaceful retreat that opens directly to the water’s edge. A whole-house generator ensures that even on stormy nights, your comfort and peace remain untouched. Outside, your private beach and boat slip await—ready for quiet morning paddles, laughter-filled afternoons on the water, or tranquil sunset reflections. Beyond your doorstep, the Locke Lake community offers every joy of lake life: boating, fishing, swimming, two community pools, playgrounds, a 6-hole golf course, plus tennis and pickleball courts. This isn’t just a home—it’s a place where memories are made, hearts are full, and every day feels like a peaceful escape.
