About this home.
This beautifully custom-built log home offers the perfect blend of craftsmanship, comfort, and serene mountain-lake living. Thoughtfully designed as a second home, it captures sweeping 2-MILE LONG VIEWS of the mountains and sparkling turquoise-blue waters, creating a truly breathtaking backdrop from nearly every angle. Each evening delivers a front-row seat to UNFORGETABLE SUNSETS.
Inside, rich hickory floors set a warm, natural tone throughout the main living spaces. The split floor plan provides privacy and functionality, featuring three bedrooms on the main level. The spacious layout flows seamlessly into inviting entertaining areas, while the lower level offers abundant additional space for gatherings, recreation, or extended guest accommodations.
The grand loft overlooks the the dramatic stone fireplace and showcases stunning water views, creating a striking architectural focal point that enhances the home's log with drywall elegance. Thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready, this property is perfectly suited for immediate enjoyment.
Outdoors, the home is equally captivating. A GATED DRIVEWAY ensures privacy and a sense of arrival, while mature landscaping--including river birch, smoke trees, crape myrtle, and Leyland cypress--frames the property beautifully. A bubbling fountain near the covered front porch adds a peaceful finishing touch.
Water enthusiasts will appreciate the 2-SLIP DOCK measuring approximately 30' x 30', offering exceptional access for boating and lake enjoyment. Annual HOA dues of $549 cover common dock maintenance, street lighting, mowing of common areas, as well as boat storage and parking.
