About this home

Want to get away from all the hustle and bustle while keeping amenities within arm’s reach? This WATERFRONT RETREAT beckons you to make your great escape! Nestled on nearly half an acre along the shore of STEEL LAKE, it’s perfectly positioned to capture WATER VIEWS from all three levels. Step in to discover spacious interiors with all the right spaces to relax, entertain, play, and work from home. Elegant living and dining areas are perfect for parties, while a casual great room forms the heart of the home with its expanse of lake view windows. Gather around the cozy fireplace, open French doors for al fresco fun on the wrap-around deck, or prep your favorite meals in the open kitchen overlooking it all. More space and views await downstairs with a huge rec room opening to the patio and BEAUTIFULLY LANDSCAPED LAKESIDE LAWN beyond (ADU/MIL potential!). All four bedrooms are tucked upstairs together, including your dreamy primary suite with its own fireplace, private balcony, and jetted tub all looking out to the lake. Custom walk-in closet and heated floors in the primary bath, too! Thoughtful extras include skylights, a wired generator, central vacuum, low-maintenance Azek decking, in-ground sprinklers + OODLES OF STORAGE. Spend weekends watching for eagles and osprey while fishing (the lake is stocked!) free from the sound of high-speed motors. With such serenity, it’s easy to forget you’re JUST MINUTES AWAY FROM LIGHT RAIL, shopping, dining, schools and easy freeway access.
