**SHOWINGS BEGIN SATURDAY APRIL 25th ** Tucked away on a corner lot in a peaceful, wooded setting within the desirable Bear Creek Lakes community, this well-maintained home offers everything you'd want in a lake retreat. Featuring an updated kitchen, modern bath, and the perfect blend of contemporary comfort with rustic charm-showcased by soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and a double-sided propane fireplace. Warm wood floors span much of the main level, complemented by an open-concept living room and kitchen. French doors open to a dining/family room filled with natural light, featuring walls of windows, a sliding glass door to the deck, and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, while slate flooring adds texture and character to the space. Designed for easy ranch-style living, the home is thoughtfully expanded with an additional 300 sq ft loft bedroom-ideal for guests or creating a private primary suite. With three bedrooms total, this property works beautifully as a full-time residence, weekend escape or short-term rental investment. Enjoy low-maintenance living with electric heat and hot water, a vinyl exterior, a new roof installed in 2024, and naturalized landscaping. The expansive front deck-both covered and open-is perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or simply taking in the surrounding beauty. Bear Creek Lakes amenities are just a short walk or golf cart ride away and include a pool, clubhouse, private lake with beach access, picnic area, shuffleboard, playground, volleyball, tennis, and basketball courts.
