Description
You will pinch yourself every time you wake up and look out at the lake view. Is this real? YES! It it is! This property sits down a little cove, just off the widest and deepest part of the lake. This shields you from all the boat wakes, and provides a quiet place to float and swim, yet you're just a hot minute away from pontoon cruising, tubing, fishing - fun days on the water await! Meanwhile, the view extends down the cove and across the water to the other side of the lake. As impressive as the location is, the interior of this home leaves nothing to be desired! The kitchen is the hub of the home and has plenty of maple cabinets, lots of counter space, stainless appliances and a breakfast bar. Meal prep is a delight when you are looking out over the wooded lake view. The kitchen opens to a very roomy dining area, so start planning the family and friends holiday dinners because there is plenty of room. Adjoining living room boasts a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, wood beamed ceiling, and lots of seating options. Imagine a fire glowing in the fireplace, while everyone gathers for conversation and good food. Spread out onto the deck because Lake Thunderbird is as beautiful in the winter as it is in the summer! On the main floor, there is a master bedroom with doors to the deck overlooking the lake, and an amazing updated bath offering a glass walled walk-in shower and separate soaker tub. Its a spa like environment waiting for you to come, relax and replenish, after a busy day of lake activities. Your family and/or guests will be pleased to discover the lower level with even more options for gathering, gaming and relaxing. There are 2 bedrooms here, a huge full bath, and of course a 2nd stone fireplace and spacious rec room area. From this level, you can walk out to the patio and fire pit area. Grab a cold one because it's time for bonfire cooking and storytelling! Did I mention the lake view from here? This area is fenced, so you can relax, without worry because pets and children will always be securely close by. Its a short walk down to the dock where there is ample room for your boat, great lake views, and one of the best views of the seasonal fireworks! The attached garage does not disappoint. It is heated, has workbenches and provides space for vehicles and all your lake toys. This is a fantastic lakefront home, whether you are looking for a weekend/vacation home or a full time residence. Come for a visit and discover all Lake Thunderbird has to offer - boating, private beach, clubhouse and pool, great fishing, tennis, miniature golf, nature trails, and special events. Come and make your dream a reality - why would you want to be anywhere else when you can be here?
