Thoughtfully designed 2026 new construction in the gated lake community of The Waterfront Club! This beautifully crafted 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home with a dedicated office offers the ease of one-level living plus over 4,200 square feet of total usable space, including a rare private exterior walk-out basement with more than 1,100 square feet of future expansion potential. Whether you envision a recreation room, fitness studio, workshop, hobby space, or extra storage, this versatile lower level offers endless possibilities while adding tremendous value. Inside, vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and an open-concept layout create an inviting atmosphere. The great room showcases a stunning white brick gas fireplace with a natural wood floating mantel and flows seamlessly into the beautifully appointed kitchen featuring quality cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, a walk-in pantry, and a dining area overlooking the private wooded backyard. The spacious primary suite offers dual closets (including a walk-in), double vanities, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, while glass French doors open to a private office or reading room. A generously sized laundry room with sink, mudroom entry, and oversized attached garage add everyday convenience. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a welcoming 261 square foot covered front porch and a 286 square foot covered rear deck overlooking a peaceful wooded backdrop. Rich architectural details, such as the knotty pine tongue & groove ceilings, solid cedar posts, cedar wrapped beams, and cedar deck railings, highlight the exceptional craftsmanship found throughout the home. Residents of The Waterfront Club enjoy a resort-style lifestyle with Lake Rhodhiss access, a community floating dock, multiple kayak and paddleboard launch areas, a swimming pool, clubhouse, pavilion with an outdoor kitchen, playground, picnic areas, fire pits, hammocks, a creekside campground, and miles of scenic hiking trails.
