Perched perfectly to capture panoramic lake views, this property setting offers ultimate privacy. While the driveway features a steep-grade, there is a generous, completely flat upper parking area for 3 cars and a secure handrail along the stairs for effortless walking access to the home. Inside, the home unfolds with warmth and intention, blending cottage farmhouse charm with elevated modern finishes. Its open-concept design is centered around gathering, whether around the oversized island or the inviting fireplace. Quartz countertops, shiplap accent walls, under-cabinet lighting, and top-of-the-line GE Café appliances with induction stove and walk-in pantry create a kitchen that feels both beautiful and functional. Expansive windows draw the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light and lake views from every level. The primary suite feels like a private retreat, while the walkout lower level creates a seamless connection to the outdoors and the quiet beauty beyond. Mornings begin with coffee on the deck. Afternoons are spent paddle boarding, kayaking, or fishing. Evenings bring deer wandering through the trees and glowing sunsets reflecting across the water. Just minutes from Pine Knob, Independence Oaks Park, downtown Clarkston, Great Lakes Crossing, and several golf courses.
