Property Description
Stunning 4,600 Sq Ft Lakeside Masterpiece on Picturesque Griffith Lake Welcome to your dream home — a 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath, 3-car garage retreat perfectly positioned on a 1-acre lot along the tranquil shores of 32-acre Griffith Lake. Blending timeless elegance with modern luxury, this residence has been meticulously maintained and extensively updated, offering unmatched comfort, convenience, and breathtaking waterfront views. Main Level: Elegant Living & Effortless Entertaining Step into the grand foyer where thoughtful design and craftsmanship shine at every turn. A welcoming half bath, custom hall closet, and cozy comfort room set the tone. The living room’s wood-burning fireplace with a stone hearth invites quiet evenings or lively gatherings, while the formal dining room impresses with intricate millwork and custom wall sconces. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight, boasting custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a two-tier island with breakfast bar. Premium appliances include a Thermador Professional 6-burner range and oven, stainless hood, Bosch dishwasher, Bosch French-door refrigerator, and built-in microwave drawer. A wet bar with sink and ice maker adds an elegant touch for entertaining. The “Serenity Room” — a year-round glass-enclosed space with ductless HVAC — provides panoramic lake views , perfect for morning coffee or sunset relaxation. The adjacent den features built-in shelving, a window seat, flat-screen TV, and a Sonos sound bar for ultimate comfort and entertainment. A main-level study, with a Murphy Bed and attached bath ensures accessibility and convenience for guests or residents. Second Level: Private Luxury & Thoughtful Design Ascend the staircase to a stunning primary suite with commanding lake views, a three-sided gas fireplace, expansive walk-in closet with built-ins, and a spa-inspired bath featuring an oversized soaking tub. Along with the Primary Suite, the upper level also offers three additional bedrooms, a versatile rec room, and two guest baths which offer plenty of room for friends and family!
