Welcome to this stunning waterfront bungalow offering luxurious living. In 2017, the original cottage underwent a total renovation down to the footings, with a large extension added, creating what is essentially a 'new build'. Situated on park-like grounds, the property features a mix of rolling topography & level areas, perfect for outdoor games or relaxing in the fresh air. A covered porch welcomes you into the home, where a spacious foyer sets the tone for the elegant yet inviting interior. The main floor offers a thoughtfully designed layout, starting with a primary suite complete with a walk-in closet & a spa-like 5-pc ensuite featuring a soaker tub, double vanity, & walk-in shower. A 2nd bedroom or a home office is ideal for guests, with a nearby laundry closet & stylish 2-pc powder room. The kitchen is a showstopper with a built-in oven, a natural gas range in the large island with seating, generous counter & cupboard space, a dishwasher (installed 2023), and a new built-in microwave installed this winter. The adjacent dining area flows into a light-filled living room anchored by a natural gas fireplace. Large windows frame beautiful views, while a covered deck extends the living space outdoors. A mudroom connects to the 2-car garage. The walk-out lower level adds 2 more guest bedrooms, a den, a 3-pc bath, & a large utility room with a natural gas furnace, central air, HRV, & hot water on demand. The family room has another gas fireplace, oversized windows with panoramic views, & sliding doors to a covered terrace/patio. Outside, enjoy a shallow entry waterfront, ideal for swimming, a floating ramp with dock extension, a fire pit area, and a large insulated storage area for garden & snow-clearing equipment. It is located on the Vernon Narrows, and is great for boating/canoeing into town, & just 8 minutes to town by car, all while feeling peacefully rural. With access to over 40 miles of boating along Huntsville's lake & river system, this home is a true gem. (id:8860)
