Property Description
Welcome to 16 S Lake Drive--Where Elevated Design Meets Everyday Ease.Tucked just moments from the coast, this thoughtfully designed retreat blends custom craftsmanship with everyday comfort in a way few properties can. Designed and built by Minchew, every detail of this home tells a story--from the rich blend of red oak, white oak, and hickory flooring to the rough-sawn oak ceilings that warm the main living spaces with understated elegance. The main home spans approximately 3,350 square feet and offers four bedrooms, a flex gym room, and a third-floor primary suite that feels like a private penthouse escape. Wake up to a morning bar just outside your door, enjoy the convenience of an in-suite washer and dryer, and unwind by the dual-sided fireplace that connects the indoors with the serene poolside setting outside. A dedicated dog wash station, reverse osmosis water filtration at both bar sinks, and GE Café appliances reflect a level of thoughtful living rarely found. The separate carriage house offers an additional 796 square feet of guest-ready luxury, complete with a full kitchen, two bathrooms, island seating, and its own oversized porchperfect for soaking in the breeze or welcoming extended guests. Artful touches and purposeful design continue throughout: vaulted ceilings, built-in desk workspace, custom tile and lighting selections, and a garage that has been reimagined as an office space, complete with its own mini-split AC and bath. With landscape lighting, turf grass, and a driveway large enough for six or more cars, the home is ideal for gatheringand zoned to support it. This is more than a house. This is a backdrop for your next chapter.
