About this home

A truly one-of-a-kind opportunity! Situated on approximately 5 private acres with beautiful deep-water lake views, this unique property offers two separate homes, exceptional amenities, and endless possibilities for a private retreat, multi-generational living, vacation getaway, or income-producing investment. The main residence, affectionately known as "The Rock House," features an impressive 7 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2 half baths, along with a full kitchen on the main level and tons of potential for additional expansion. What makes this home especially memorable is its unique placement--built into and around a natural rock formation that has become a favorite spot for kids to climb, explore, and make memories. The secondary residence offers 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a full kitchen, creating the perfect setup for guests, extended family, a caretaker's residence, or an additional income-producing rental. The property itself is packed with amenities, including a private tennis court, playground, boat dock, and large outbuilding offering plenty of storage for lake toys, equipment, and more. Enjoy peaceful lake views from both homes, along with the privacy and space that five acres provides. Both residences are currently utilized as Airbnb properties, offering established short-term rental use and exciting investment potential for the next owner. Whether you envision continuing the vacation-rental operation, creating a private lake compound, hosting large family gatherings, or transforming the property into your own unique retreat, opportunities like this are hard to duplicate. Two homes. Five private acres. Deep-water views. Private dock. Tennis court. And a property guests will never forget.
