Perfection on Lake Mendota! This completely updated home sits in the rarely available upscale lakefront community of Borchers Beach. Charming details, open floor plan, dramatic 66' of frontage, stellar (and always changing) views from inside & out. Large lot with gentle slope down to the water activities, boathouse, L-shaped pier (also a DNR-registered sailboat mooring). Many entertaining, dining, and hang out areas. Updated Chef's kitchen with granite countertops, high end stainless steel appliances, large eat-at island for five. Large, updated baths (amazing master & huge walk-in closet). Abuts Governor Nelson State Park, adding an element of privacy and serenity. Driveway accommodates at least 8 additional cars so many guests can come to your party (unique with lakefront property). Only problem? They will not want to leave! Feel like you are on vacation all the time in this lovely home.
