Imagine arriving at your own private waterfront estate, where every window frames crystal-clear Fontana Lake and majestic mountain forests. Here, luxury meets serene nature — unwind on expansive decks with golden sunsets, dive into cool waters from your covered dock, or gather in elegant spaces designed for cherished moments.

Step through the grand entryway into a world of warmth and light. Vaulted timber trusses soar overhead, 100-year-old barn wood floors glow underfoot, and natural light floods every corner. The gourmet kitchen boasts inspiring counter space, top appliances, and everything needed for effortless meals or morning coffee with lake views. The main-floor primary suite offers pure luxury — a peaceful king bed retreat with an ensuite bath and generous closets for ultimate comfort. Downstairs awaits a sophisticated entertainment area with a large built-in bar, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath — ideal for relaxed evenings or family game time.
