Property Description
Step inside this spacious residence where every detail reflects thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship. The first floor greets you with a welcoming foyer with custom stone flooring, a convenient half-bath, a cozy comfort room, and a hall closet with custom-built shelving. The adjacent living room showcases a striking wood-burning fireplace with a stone hearth, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings, and the elegant dining room features intricate millwork and custom wall sconces.
The gourmet eat-in-kitchen is a chef's delight, boasting custom cabinetry, elegant quartz countertops, and a convenient 2 tiered center island with breakfast bar. Appliances include a Thermador Professional 6-burner gas range and oven, stainless steel hood vent, built-in microwave drawer, Bosch dishwasher, and a Bosch French-door refrigerator. An adjacent beverage/bar area with sink and ice maker adds a sophisticated touch for entertaining guests.
Enjoy your morning coffee or an evening sunset from the serene comfort of the year-round "Serenity Room." Formerly a screened porch, this glass-enclosed room with ductless HVAC provides spectacular lake views and access to the expansive deck. The adjacent den, featuring custom shelving, a window seat, and built-in sound system with Sonos bar and flat-screen TV, complements the home's entertainment and relaxation spaces.
Accessibility and convenience highlight the main-floor bedroom suite including a walk-in bathtub, Murphy bed, and mounted flat-screen TV, ensuring comfort for guests or residents.
Ascend to the second floor to discover a luxurious master suite highlighted by stunning lake views, a three-sided gas fireplace, an expansive walk-in closet, built-in shelving and drawers, and an indulgent oversized bathtub in the master bath. Three additional spacious bedrooms provide ample closet space, with one closet thoughtfully equipped with a portable escape ladder for added safety.
A versatile recreation room or office, complete with a cedar closet, and a second-floor geothermal HVAC system further enhance the living space and the custom built-in bookcases lining the hallway add charm and functionality.
Step outside onto the beautifully maintained grounds designed for leisure and entertaining. The lakeview deck, outfitted with Adirondack chairs, loungers, a gas grill, and a table set, provides a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The rip-rapped shoreline grants easy access to the pristine 32-acre Griffith Lake. Additional outdoor amenities include a Generac whole-house generator, a 500-gallon buried propane tank, and meticulously landscaped gardens.
The unfinished walkout basement is both functional and spacious, featuring a pool table, ample shelving, and a workshop area with floor cabinets. The basement also houses the geothermal units, a tankless hot water heater, and an advanced Halo/Remy air filtration system for optimum indoor air quality.
Energy efficiency and sustainability are integral to this home, demonstrated by its 64-panel rooftop solar system and eight geothermal wells. Additional thoughtful updates include Andersen energy-efficient windows, recent interior and exterior painting, and extensive renovations to the kitchen, bathrooms, living spaces, and deck areas.
The oversized three-car garage provides ample storage with wall shelving and three closets, ensuring everything has its place.
Don't miss the chance to experience this exceptional lakeside lifestyle.
