Wrapped in a stately stone exterior, the Shingle-Style Lake House radiates luxury and elegance further enhanced with soaring turrets, shed dormers, and decorative arches framing the windows and covered porch. The expanse use of windows ensures that each area in the house enjoys breathtaking views.

The elegant charm is carried into the interior. Beamed ceilings and wainscoted walls add visual interest while natural wood elements bring warmth and a cozy ambiance. The interior is also graced with contemporary furnishings and classy chandeliers.

A sparkling pool sets a magnificent focal point in the backyard. It is complemented by a covered lanai which offers a perfect place for entertaining.
