The lakefront has an incredible stone gazebo and deck, walk-in beach, perfect to enjoy a lake life of kayaking, windsurfing, paddle boarding, swimming, fishing or just a relaxing float. Overall, this exceptional home has been beautifully renovated with only the best new world aesthetics, but has maintained that old world charm.
