Set on a peaceful stretch of Lake Road, this thoughtfully designed home blends passive solar efficiency with inviting indoor-outdoor living. The back of the home faces south, capturing natural light throughout the day and enhancing the home's warm, comfortable feel. Outside, the property offers a spacious fenced in backyard (0.5 acre area & 4 ft high) bordered by a gentle stream that draws birds & wildlife to the edge of the lot. Heirloom roses, elderberry, & magnolia plantings add seasonal color and charm. A large, shaded covered front porch is the perfect place to escape the sun. Inside, the home has been freshly painted with high quality paint and features beautiful wood floors throughout. The home's minimalistic kitchen opens into a bright, airy living space with a working fireplace and enhanced by an impressive wall of windows and two sets of French doors, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection to the ground level deck. The main level includes a bedroom with its own French door leading to the back deck, along with a convenient laundry room and half bath. Upstairs, you'll find a full bath and 2 additional bedrooms, including one that is exceptionally spacious allowing for a sitting area, yoga corner, or office nook. The partially finished lower level stays naturally cool in summer and becomes wonderfully cozy in winter with the efficient Harman pellet stove. Smart lighting with Wiz bulbs runs throughout the home, allowing you to set the perfect mood in every room.
