A home designed for entertaining, the kitchen has open flow to the dining and vaulted and beamed living room, and there is a great sunroom that could function as a spacious dining, 4-season porch, or an awesome home office space, equipped with french doors for privacy. Take a stroll down the long lakeside hallway which leads to perhaps the coolest room in the home, the rec room! Fitted with a bar, and stone fireplace, it is perfect for a pool table or comfy seating for all. It truly feels like an escape from the ordinary! The lower level offers yet another comfy space with the family room and its gas stove to curl up and read a good book or watch a movie. Looking for storage?
