Property Description

Completely renovated waterfront home on the shores of the Lake of Egypt, offering modern updates, peaceful surroundings, and incredible lake views in a deep, no-wake cove. This move-in ready property has been fully updated from top to bottom between 2024-2025, including new roof, siding, windows, sliding glass doors, HVAC (Bosch dual zone), all plumbing, all electrical, tankless water heater, and more-providing peace of mind for years to come. Step inside to a beautifully redesigned interior where the kitchen is the true centerpiece. Featuring a massive island that seats up to 14, quartz countertops, new stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry, this space is perfect for entertaining while overlooking the calm waters of the cove. The living room offers a cozy wood-burning fireplace and ample space for both lounging and dining. The primary suite is positioned to take in lake views and includes an attached bath and custom built-in cabinetry. A spacious second bedroom and a dedicated office or reading nook provide flexibility for everyday living. Laundry is conveniently located on the main level. The walkout basement offers over 500 sq ft of additional living space-ideal for a bunk room, recreation area, or hangout zone. There is even a secret hideout for kids located under the stairway. It also includes future expansion potential, with plumbing already in place for a third bedroom, bathroom, or even a kitchenette/bar area, including hot/cold water connections, drain lines, and a 4" floor drain. Outdoor living is just as impressive. The 23x9 covered waterfront porch provides a relaxing space to enjoy the lake, with an additional enclosed area below featuring two sliding doors (currently being replaced) that would make a perfect lakeside prep area, storage space, or future bar setup. A gently sloping yard leads to the water's edge and a single-slip covered dock. A new retaining wall is currently being professionally installed, with additional exterior improvements underway, including a planned Trex deck off the primary suite and updates to the storage building (new roof, siding, door, and window) with existing electric. Situated in a wide, deep, no-wake cove, this property offers minimal boat traffic and plenty of space for swimming, paddleboarding, and relaxing on the water-perfect for making lasting lake memories. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a fully renovated waterfront home with room to expand, modern systems throughout, and a peaceful lake setting.
