Description
Rare opportunity to own 132 feet of private frontage on the highly sought-after West Lake. This beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath ranch is hitting the market for the very first time. Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home sits on 2 acres of mature trees & lush greenery, with a winding, tree-lined driveway & turnaround that offer both privacy & convenience. The main floor features a bright, open layout where the kitchen, dining area & living room flow together seamlessly. Expansive windows frame breathtaking views of West Lake and the Nature Preserve. A spacious three-season room opens to the lakeside terrace, leading to an inviting heated in-ground pool surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds; perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Three generously sized bedrooms

You'll also find a fourth bedroom and full bath with a private entrance; ideal for rinsing off after a day on the lake. At the end of a storage-lined hallway, a spacious flex room offers endless potential for a gym, game room, or the ultimate retreat. Additional highlights include a 3-stall carport, newer roof (2013), furnace (2015), updated A/C and windows.
