That perfect little ''escape to the lake''. Situated in a wide cove on the big water of Smith Mountain Lake down by the dam, this ever so cozy waterfront home is made for relaxation. Completely updated with new gray cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors, and updated bathrooms, you can move in and enjoy from day one. Plus, you'll have the best seat in the house for the July 4th fireworks without even going outside! The spacious screened porch is perfect for afternoon napping, and the double slip boat dock is just steps away. Equally as enjoyable during the colder months with a wood burning fireplace. The roof and gutters are 3 years old, exterior painted 2019.
