Agent Description

Perfectly positioned on historic Lake Avenue, just one block from the shoreline, this exceptional residence offers a rare blend of timeless elegance and curated modern luxury. A grand, oversized front porch sets the tone-complete with a hanging bench swing and framed by mature trees-creating a serene setting for morning coffee or evening unwinding with lake breezes nearby.

Glimpses of the lake, so close at hand lend peace to a restless soul. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined to honor its architectural heritage while introducing sophisticated updates. Rich natural hardwood floors, complemented by original details and stunning stained glass windows that cast a warm, ambient glow as sunlight filters through.

The kitchen is a true showstopper-both refined and functional-featuring granite countertops, extensive custom cabinetry, and carefully selected lighting that nods to the home's historic roots while elevating the overall aesthetic. It's a space equally suited for quiet mornings or lively gatherings.

Upstairs, four well-appointed bedrooms offer comfort and versatility, including one with a spacious walk-in closet. The bathroom showcases upscale finishes, including heated floors-an indulgent touch that enhances everyday living. Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard feels like a private retreat.

A generous deck, fire pit area, and thoughtfully designed spaces create the perfect backdrop for entertaining or relaxing under the stars. A charming chicken coop and storage shed add both character and functionality, while the detached two-car garage completes the property.

Additional features include a large, dry basement offering excellent storage and a new furnace system for modern efficiency and peace of mind. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained and beautifully updated historic home in one of the area's most desirable locations-where classic modern comfort, and the allure of lake living come together in perfect harmony...
