Take advantage of this unique and scenic custom-designed lakefront home, on a rare sprawling double lot, on the shores of Candlewick Lake. Enjoy the brand new roof and modern roof ventilation system that were installed in November 2024! The meticulously maintained main house features a two-story swath of windows and a wrap-around deck offering unobstructed lake views, a freshly updated interior and gorgeous exterior landscape that epitomizes the phrase "dream home." The open floor plan includes many updates and its showcase is a dramatic hardwood floor throughout. The property includes a detached oversized 3-car garage to store all your lake toys and cars. The 2-story living room overlooks the lake, has a corner fireplace and walks out to the largest deck frontage on this corner of Candlewick Lake. The home's three bedrooms and 2.5 baths enables the home to be used year-round or as a comfortable family getaway. On the main floor, there is a newly renovated guest bedroom adjacent to the dining area and spacious kitchen. The expansive second floor serves as a private master suite with vaulted ceilings, luxury bathroom including a whirlpool tub and separate shower and loft area with spectacular lake views. In addition, there is a balcony where you can enjoy your morning coffee as you watch the sunrise over the lake. The finished walkout lower level has additional living areas including a bedroom and a family room that walks out to the backyard oasis. The recently installed shoreline deck is great for fishing or just taking in the view. The adjacent empty lot can be used for recreational fun of your choice, or someday you can detach it as a separate property for a range of uses. The possibilities are endless! Your own private pier awaits as you grab the kayaks and enjoy the serenity of Candlewick Lake. The lifestyle in this gated community includes a clubhouse as a focal point that includes a regulation size basketball court, 2 fitness center areas with lake views, child care and after school activities, 2 story game room/library with fireplace and a community room that may be rented out to hold receptions (wedding, graduation, birthdays, etc). Outside of this area is a seasonal in-ground pool that was recently redone, as well as a beach area on the lake and picnic areas. The home is walking distance to the first tee of Savannah Oaks, a 9 hole golf course with putting green and driving range area perfectly situated to work on your game. Greens fees are included in the low association fees. There are several playgrounds as well as a dog park. What are you waiting for? Schedule a tour today and be amazed at what you experience as you tour one of the finest showcase lakefront homes to hit the market in a long time!
