About This Home
Bring your vision to life in this charming corner-lot retreat, ideally situated across from serene Baker's Lake-a protected Nature Preserve where nothing can ever be built. Enjoy the assurance that your breathtaking views will always remain natural, complete with remarkable sunrises that set the tone for peaceful mornings. This home offers a rare opportunity to customize your dream space in a premier, forever-private setting. While you plan your aesthetic upgrades, enjoy true peace of mind knowing the major mechanicals are already handled: newer furnace, A/C, and water heater (2024), along with a water treatment system (2023). Designed for entertaining, the layout features a partially finished walkout basement and two expansive decks overlooking your private corner lot and preserved lake views. Whether you envision a modern lakeside masterpiece or a cozy sanctuary, the heavy lifting is done-now it's ready for your finishing touch.
