What about Knob? Smith Mountain Lake

What About Knob? Lakefront views. Thoughtful design. A place to slow down. Some homes are filled with things. This one was created for being at the lake with the people you love. This waterfront escape blends simple design with a few unexpected details that give it character. The space feels calm, comfortable, and well considered without taking away from what you came for. The lake. Set on nearly three quarters of an acre with water on three sides, the home takes full advantage of its private setting. Nearly every room looks out to Smith Mountain Lake, with long views toward Halesford Bridge, expansive shoreline, and an oversized dock. The main level is open and easy, with high ceilings and a well-equipped kitchen that has everything you need without excess. Two bedrooms and two full baths sit just off the main space, each with a king bed and direct water views that ease you into the day. Inside, the home carries a distinct style, furnished with pieces that add interest without feeling overdone. On the expansive deck, you will find outdoor dining for long evenings and lounge seating for slow afternoons. A spiral staircase leads to The Sky Fort, a relaxed hideaway above it all with views of the water and a quiet connection to the surrounding landscape and wildlife. The lower level brings a different energy. The bar and game area leans more eclectic, with plenty to see and do. A kitchenette, bar, bumper pool, and ping pong create an easy space to gather. From here, walk straight out to the porch and back into the landscape. Outside is where this home really delivers. Nearly 370 feet of waterfront gives you room to spread out. Deep water for boating. A cove for swimming and floating. The private dock includes a roll-top bar, mini fridge, and plenty of space to lounge, fish, or tie up your boat for the day. The outdoor spaces are designed to be used. Dining areas. Lounge seating. A chrome fire pit that anchors the evening. Fishing off the dock is easy. Or do nothing at all and watch the light move across the lake. Comfortably suited for 4 adults, with room for a couple of small children. Ideal for couples, small families, or a quiet getaway with friends. Close to restaurants, shopping, and a public boat launch, yet far enough removed to feel like your own private stretch of lake. One dog is welcome. Parking for up to 6 vehicles and a boat trailer.

Location,location,location. This house is truly unique and very well done by owner. We can tell owner wants to present a truly wonderful vacation home. We'll equipped with quality pots pans and comfortable bedding.Dock a definite plus as well with adequate parking. This home with many lakeside windows makes you feel like you are right over the water with water views from all directions. Too many PROs to mention. Only CON is carrying your own trash to the city dump and couch could be a bit more comfortable but over all 5 star outstanding. Job well done by owner and SML vacation LLC. We will be going back next year.
