About this home
Welcome to this cozy, cottage-style ranch home custom built in 2015, nestled in the heart of Christmas Lake Village. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully maintained, this home offers breathtaking, year-round views of Christmas Lake from its oversized front porch—a perfect place to unwind and soak in the serenity. Step inside to discover an open, inviting floor plan featuring engineered hardwood floors, a gorgeous stone ventless fireplace, and a seamless flow between living, sitting, and kitchen areas. The eat-in kitchen is a dream—fully outfitted with custom Shiloh cabinetry, soft-close drawers, a copper farmhouse sink, granite countertops, LG double oven, rollout trays, lead glass cabinet doors, and a custom range hood. Watch the lake sparkle while washing dishes at the kitchen sink! A split bedroom layout offers privacy, with the owner’s suite enjoying peaceful lake views, LVT flooring, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and large custom vanity. The second bedroom and full bath, located on the opposite wing, features a raised oversized vanity surrounded by a unique tile backsplash and beautiful LVT floors. Make your way down the board and batten hallway and into the dedicated laundry room offering convenience and charm with its custom locker/drop zone and screened-in country-style door. Head upstairs to the third bedroom (or optional bonus/hobby room) showcasing a built-in wardrobe and sweeping lake views. Out back, relax on the private patio overlooking a wooded backyard filled with wildlife—a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening wine. Did we mention absolutely no carpet anywhere in this one owner home—just quality finishes and a warm, welcoming feel throughout. If you’re dreaming of a cozy Christmas Lake cottage with luxury touches and peaceful surroundings, this is it! Christmas Lake Village has many amenities including an 18 hole golf course, beach with clubhouse, playground, 24 hour gated security and more!
