## Description

### Agent Description
Sitting amongst an area of fine homes on the North side of Christie Lake is this pristine year round quality built home. Boasting over 3000 sqft this home has been designed to ''have it all'' and ''last''. Starting with 69 feet of prime water frontage on beautiful Christie Lake. Includes a rare personal boat launch. Christie Lake is a private lake with no public access, so this is a HUGE feature. As you pull in the driveway- you will already be impressed with the brick home, plush lawn with irrigation, plenty of parking, coordinating 20 x20 workshop and abundance of concrete flatwork to keep maintenance minimal. The workshop is well insulated, ample electricity and heat! Inside the home- you will appreciate the high ceilings on both floors. Builder sculpted tray ceilings offer height and dimension. Wood floors throughout main level. Unique panoramic dining area. Walk out deck for great lake vibes! The Kitchen will delight any cook: double ovens, delux cabinetry, under cabinet lighting, pantry, and soft close features and appliances. Main floor laundry room and primary.Views of the beautiful lake twinkle in every window, Lower level also walks out to lake level. Large bedroom and bath w a jacuzzi tub completes this floor. Ample raw storage w shelving and well organized upgraded electric system and house mechanics. Complete house "on demand" generator system. Pride of ownership is evident in every inch of this home. Impeccable maintenance records are being passed on. All this AND Christie Lake- 200+ acres of the greatest pan fishing, migrating bird watching, boating, tubing, swimming lake around. 3 other lakes are just minutes away if you like variety. Great places to grab breakfast, coffee and supplies, are just 10 minutes away. There is even a marina and dock works business easily accessible. It IS one of the nicest quality homes you will visit. Make it your own! Immediate occupancy.
