One of the biggest challenges with lake homes in Big Canoe is access to the water. That's what sets this property apart. Positioned below the road, the home enjoys a gentle, easy path to the lake-making it simple to come and go with kayaks, paddleboards, or just a chair and a good book. It's a setting that invites you to actually use the lake every day. Inside, the view takes center stage. Lake Petit stretches across the main living space, framed by vaulted ceilings and tongue-and-groove wood accents. Natural light pours through a wall of windows, while recently refinished hardwood floors and a rebuilt upper deck extend the living space outdoors. The sunroom offers a quiet place to start or end the day, overlooking the water in every season. The main-level primary suite is both comfortable and private, with lake views and its own fireplace-an ideal retreat on cooler mountain evenings. The terrace level is designed for gathering, with three additional bedrooms, a media room with upgraded WiFi, and a second family room with its own fireplace and pool table that remains with the home, creating a true extension of the living space for guests and entertaining. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with both upper and lower decks positioned to take in the lake, including a lower-level deck with a hot tub-perfect after a day on the water. A professionally installed stone pathway leads directly to the shoreline, and a discreet winch system beneath the deck makes transporting watercraft and equipment effortless. Recent improvements include a new roof, new HVAC on the terrace level, fresh interior and exterior paint, updated lighting, and structural enhancements to the decking and outdoor spaces -providing peace of mind for the next owner. Lakefront homes in Big Canoe are limited. Properties that combine this level of access, setting, and everyday livability rarely come to market.
