This stunning 2022 Craftsman ranch first-tier property delivers the effortless lifestyle so many buyers seek. Set on a rare .62-acre double lot, the property offers exceptional outdoor space for entertaining, recreation, gatherings, and evenings by the fire pit—a true luxury in a gated lake community.
