Property Description

Perched high on a picturesque hill, this ranch home with a walk-out lower level has breathtaking views of the serene waterfront below. The estate, with its single-story layout, offers a unique blend of rustic charm and untapped potential. Huge living room with a woodburning fireplace and slider out to a 23' x 10' deck. The lower level is great for entertaining with the family room, hot tub room, powder room, good size utility room and 2 french doors out to another 24' x 10' deck. This home originally had a 1-car garage that the seller turned into a workshop but could be great hobby room or man-cave. The seller added an attached 2-car garage on the east side of the home. Besides the 3 bedrooms with lots of closet space, one was being used as an office that has a door to the newer garage. Great location on the northside of Silver Lake, a 46 acre spring fed lake allowing kayaks, paddle boats, canoes and small sailboats (no motorized) makes for a quiet lakefront lifestyle. This estate is offered in its present condition, inviting you to infuse your vision and transform it into your year-round lakeside retreat.
