A lakefront DREAM COME TRUE in the prestigious Cottage Reserve development on Lake Macbride. With stunning unobstructed water views from two directions, a gently sloping, wide water-frontage lot, and private dock, this property is an exceptional and one-of-a-kind opportunity for a buyer with vision, be it a small or large remodel, or rebuilding a modern lake house on the lot.

As it stands now, this spacious, architecturally designed home with strong MCM roots features midwestern elements, expands upwards around a strikingly wide open oak staircase. Every space and level of this home offer a gift of connection to the beauty of nature. Million dollar lake views no matter the season. Two sunrooms with wraparound windows for watching the sunlight glisten on the water. Expansive outdoor space on the half acre lot includes a deck, patio and private dock inviting you to enjoy the best of outdoor living. Inside, a limestone fireplace made for enjoying a crackling fire on a cold night. The lower level features a second full kitchen, bathroom and living room space–perfect guest quarters for friends and family who want to visit.
