Three waterfront lots, 1Acre, in the desirable neighborhood of Hide a Way Bay with lush landscaping, incredible views, great water--- so serene and private. Not your cookie cutter lake home! As you enter you will be amazed by the breathtaking water views from the great room with double French doors opening to the deck that runs the length of the house to allow additional outdoor living space. Inside, a wood burning fireplace competes the room for those chilly winter evenings. The dining room has a vaulted ceiling and with two walls of windows bringing the outside in. The kitchen enjoys water views as well and has Italian ceramic tile, a wet bar with a sink in the shape of Texas, and on the opposite end there's a breakfast bar. Two bedrooms and full baths are downstairs. Both light and airy bedrooms have French doors taking in the front gardens. Going upstairs, enjoy the wide stairwell with vaulted ceiling, skylight and multiple windows bathing it in light. Step into the game room and be amazed by the soaring beamed ceiling, wall of windows, wood flooring and built-in shelves and cabinets. French doors here step out onto a balcony overlooking the front landscaping. There's also a bunk room the kids just love! Across the hall is the primary bedroom with another soaring beamed ceiling, wall of windows overlooking the lake, French doors leading out to a private water view balcony and a wood burning fireplace. The primary bath has double sinks, a whirlpool tub, skylight and a huge shower---very mountain spa like! The boat house has an enclosed boat storage area with electric lift, there's a covered deck, open fishing deck and upstairs sunbathing and sunset and star watching deck! The water here is excellent for all your watersports. The yard is watered with an automatic system using water pumped from the lake to keep it green and lush all year.
