A stunning fusion of lakeside serenity and bespoke luxury, this exceptional estate offers an unparalleled living experience. Owned by the renowned science fiction author Andy Weir, this property was expertly redesigned and renovated from the ground up by award-winning architects Benvenuti & Stein and Karl Straussburger.

The floating dock provides direct access to the lake for fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, or even winter ice skating, while a custom-built retaining wall ensures the shoreline remains intact for years to come. Every detail has been meticulously curated, from the grand foyer to the multiple custom-designed offices and luxurious en suite bedrooms, making this home the perfect retreat for those seeking beauty, comfort, and exclusivity.
