Your Year-Round Lakeside Escape Awaits! Imagine waking up to the sparkle of the lake, coffee in hand, as the sun streams through the wall of windows in your vaulted great room. This 5-bedroom, 2-bath home has everything you need to relax, recharge, and make memories in every season. Set on a large, level lot, this retreat offers privacy, space, and endless possibilities. Kids can run barefoot on the grass and right into the shallow waterfront all within view of the cottage. Friends can gather around the fire pit, and everyone will want to linger on the spacious deck overlooking those wide, open water views. The layout is ideal for families and guests: three bedrooms, including the primary, are conveniently located on the main floor, while the fourth bedroom and an extra flex room are tucked away on the walkout lower level. The basement also features a big rec room, laundry area, and a patio thats perfect for shady afternoons. Outside, the property is designed for easy access and convenience with two driveways and plenty of room to create a circular drive-in/drive-out loop, making it simple to pull in with vehicles, trailers, or boats. The additional back lot provides extra acreage for added privacy. An extra outbuilding sits waiting to be reimagined into guest space, a creative studio, or a kids hideaway. When the seasons change, the fun doesn't stop! In winter, you have snowmobile and snowshoeing trails right at your fingertips, with cozy evenings by the fire to warm up afterward. This is a true four-season getaway or year-round home. Practical touches make year-round living easy: a drilled well, plenty of storage in the double car garage, and it's less than 15 minutes to downtown Huntsville for anything you need. This is more than a cottage; it's a place where weekends turn into long summers, winters are full of adventure, and family memories last a lifetime. Bring your family, your friends, your ideas and get ready to fall in love with lakeside living.
