About This Property
Welcome to an exceptional waterfront estate built in 2024, offering over 4,000 sq ft of meticulously designed living space on a private 12.7-acre parcel with 795 feet of stabilized shoreline. This contemporary home blends high-end finishes, thoughtful layout, and wonderful outdoor living spaces for buyers seeking privacy, luxury on a private lakefront parcel. Step inside to an open, bright floorplan anchored by a gourmet kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a large island perfect for casual dining and entertaining, and top-tier stainless steel appliances. An oversized awning window opens to the screened porch creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The main level hosts the luxurious primary suite with an elegant ensuite bath, offering privacy and single-floor convenience. Elevator access provides effortless movement between floors. The second floor delivers two generous bedrooms, each with private ensuite baths, plus a versatile loft space. The lower-level walkout is an entertainer’s dream: a full bedroom with ensuite, a complete second kitchen for independent living or large gatherings, a spacious family room, exercise room, flex room, and a dedicated office. Practical touches include a second washer/dryer in the basement and an on-demand water heater for efficiency. A whole-house standby generator ensures uninterrupted comfort and peace of mind. Outdoor living is designed for enjoyment and durability. Hardscaping and a patio with a gas fire pit create an inviting gathering spot, while a hookup is ready for a hot tub. The property’s waterfront amenities are outstanding: a covered single-slip floating dock with lift, composite decking, and a metal roof make boating and lakeside lounging effortless. Nearly 800 feet of stabilized shoreline guarantees privacy and long-term waterfront integrity. Durable, low-maintenance exterior materials include Hardie board siding and stone. Additionally a detached two-car garage equipped with HVAC and Wi-Fi and cold water sink for workshop convenience, and a long drive that enhances the sense of seclusion while providing ample parking for guests.
This estate is thoughtfully appointed for multi-generational living, entertaining, or year-round retreat use. High-end finishes, abundant natural light, flexible living spaces, and unparalleled waterfront access combine to create a property that satisfies both practical needs and lifestyle aspirations. Experience waterfront living without compromise. Community amenities include open pavilions at the lake Camp and River Camp. Miles of walking trails, community building and full time on site caretaker. Just 15 minutes to Marion shops, restaurants and entertainment.
