At the heart of the property is one of its most coveted features ~ a private DOUBLE SLIP DOCK with 2nd story sundeck, tucked into a quiet cove that always has DEEP WATER, with easy sloped access from the house via walking or golf cart. This is waterfront living without compromise. The terrace level features a 2nd kitchen, living area & fireplace along with access to the screened in porch & lower deck & hot tub! After a day on the water, gather on one of the two decks & unwind beneath the stars, enjoying the peaceful privacy that only true lakefront living can provide.
