Property Description
Experience elevated living in this custom-built "treehouse inspired" retreat. Perched on a quiet cul-de-sac within The Galena Territory, this 3BR/2.5BA home sits on a private 0.80-acre wooded lot with seasonal views of the marina. Designed to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings, the home features a functional, light filled layout that maximizes its high vantage point. The standout multi season screened porch offers a serene escape, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation among the mature trees. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will be impressed by the massive 3.5 car garage, featuring extra tall ceilings with the height potential for a car lift, a rare find in the area. Additional organized storage is provided by a convenient shelved crawl space. Living here grants you full access to The Galena Territory owner amenities, including indoor/outdoor pools, fitness center, gym, tennis, and miles of scenic trails. Located just minutes from Eagle Ridge Resort, championship golf, and fine dining. Unmatched Privacy Opportunity: The adjacent lots at 2 and 3 Waterford Drive are also available for purchase, offering a unique chance to acquire all three properties and create an expansive, ultra private wooded estate. Enjoy the perfect blend of secluded forest atmosphere and easy access to top tier recreation.
