One of just nine homes on Fairfield Lake, this rare lakefront property commands an extraordinary position on one of the Plateau's most storied and sought-after waters - complete with a private boat dock and an 18-foot pontoon boat. Majestic rock columns anchored by exquisite English gates open to a meandering paved driveway, with ample parking for family and guests. The soothing sound of a recirculating waterfall greets at the front porch, and inside, the grandeur of soaring vaulted ceilings sets the tone for an open floor plan that connects the living room, kitchen, and dining area with ease. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light and frame sweeping views of Bald Rock - a vantage point exclusive to this lakefront property. The main level offers three bedrooms, three bathrooms, two fireplaces, a dedicated office or TV room, and a generous deck spanning the full width of the home - well-suited for outdoor entertaining and taking in the views. The lower level has been thoughtfully completed to function as a fully independent living space, featuring a den with a fireplace, an additional bedroom with a full bathroom, two bonus rooms with two full bathrooms, and a finished kitchen - creating a true lock-out arrangement. A second full-width deck opens directly to the gentle backyard and the lake beyond. The finished garage is outfitted with cabinetry lining both sides, a workbench, and 24 under-counter drawers - a well-organized and functional space rarely found at this level. Additional features include an encapsulated crawl space and individual room temperature controls throughout. Two custom Ironwood bunk sets and a queen bedroom suite, each handcrafted by local artisans, convey with the sale. Outside, an included 18-foot pontoon boat is docked at the private boat dock, with a lakefront gazebo completing the waterfront setting. A trail encircling the lake offers an opportunity to experience the full beauty of Fairfield Lake and its surroundings. Property ownership includes access to Sapphire Valley Resort amenities, featuring golf, tennis, pickleball, indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness center, Lake Fairfield, and a ski and tubing slope. The area is also home to two private country clubs. Nearby, Cashiers and Highlands offer dining, shopping, and year-round culture. Enchanting in every sense, this is one of those unique properties where setting, character, and exclusivity converge - a true once-in-a-generation opportunity.
