In addition to being a convenient layout, the split floor plan affords privacy when friends or family visit. Between the bedrooms, the open floor plan boasts a large eat-in kitchen with an island, a dining room, and a living room featuring a stacked-stone, wood-burning fireplace. A deck with both covered and uncovered areas spans the entire back of the house and offers sweeping views of Lake Glenville, the highest-elevation lake east of the Mississippi River. Kick back, relax, and watch the world go by while cozied up beside another stacked-stone fireplace. On the lower level, there are two additional bonus rooms, two bathrooms, and a large living area for both adults and kids to gather and play ping pong or games, complete puzzles, or watch TV. Another expansive deck spreads across the length of the house. For convenience, laundry rooms are located on both levels. And, for added peace of mind, the current owners installed a generator and encapsulated the crawlspace with a whole-house dehumidifier. This must-see home is being sold turnkey, so all you have to do is move in, start enjoying lake life, and make memories for years to come!
