This is truly a rare find and one that comes available oh-so seldomly! From both the main and upper levels, every lakeside room frames breathtaking, panoramic water views that stretch to the horizon. With 5 spacious bedrooms and 3 baths, this grand home offers ample space for family and guests, blending historical charm with the potential for modern luxury.
