The primary bedroom, with floor-to-ceiling windows, offers a daily retreat to nature's tranquility. Step out onto the private deck to enjoy one on one time with the outdoors. In this sanctuary, the primary bathroom transforms into a lavish retreat, featuring a luxurious wet room, dual shower heads, and a spacious walk-in closet with a closet system. A built-in Bluetooth speaker with lights invites you to channel your inner rock star while showering!

The spacious living area invites relaxation or an exciting game night! Need storage? Three enormous closets provide plenty of space. With three additional bedrooms and two baths, everyone can have their own cozy nook. Plus, all five bedrooms come with Elfa closet systems. Step outside to a backyard that's perfect for yard games, lush gardens, or whatever delights you. Head down to your fabulous dock, equipped with lights, water, two boat lifts, and ample storage for kayaks, paddleboards, oars, and a dock chest. With 246 feet of waterfront and 30 feet of deep water at full pool, it's a paradise for fishing enthusiasts, complete with pole holders and a dock pre-wired for a green light. Upstairs, the party deck invites sunbathing and pure relaxation. This peaceful cove offers deep waters ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, efoiling, and excellent fishing.
