Property Description
Waterfront on Sylvan Lake! Experience lakefront living with this ranch home featuring a walk-out basement, set on nearly an acre (.85 acres) in the highly sought-after Sylvan Lake community. From the moment you enter, you're welcomed by a dramatic wall of windows framing serene lake views. The open-concept kitchen, living room, and dining room boast cathedral ceilings, skylights, Brazilian Cherry floors, and a double-sided fireplace. The kitchen offers soapstone counters, a spacious island perfect for gatherings, and direct access to the garage for easy grocery unloading. Off the dining room, a screened-in porch overlooks the pier-an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The primary suite features lake views, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom ready for your finishing touches. Two additional bedrooms, each with hardwood floors and wall closets, share the hall bath. The walk-out lower level expands your living space with heated floors, a wood-burning fireplace, another wall of windows, a family room, full bath with shower, laundry area, and a large unfinished storage/workshop. Step outside to the stamped concrete patio for lakeside enjoyment. Additional highlights include: Oversized lot extending from the neighbor's pier to an association-owned parcel. Long driveway with parking for 6+ cars, plus a 2-car garage. Fremont School District. Boiler heat and central air. This home does require some work-yet it's a rare chance to own nearly an acre of waterfront property with tremendous potential in one of the area's most desirable communities.
