Property Description

Welcome to the lake life you've been waiting for on Lake Easy, a ski lake where every day feels like a getaway. This is more than a home, it's a lifestyle. From the moment you go outside, you're entering into direct, ready-to-enjoy waterfront living with your private dock and covered boat lift, making it effortless to get on the water for skiing, boating or sunset cruises. No waiting, no permitting, no additional expense, it's all in place and ready to use. Inside, the home offers a rare blend of timeless character and thoughtful updates. Original wood floors and architectural details bring warmth and charm, while a remodeled kitchen and approximately $100,000 in improvements create a move-in-ready experience that honors the home's character. A newer roof adds peace of mind and long-term value, especially in today's insurance-conscious market. A standout feature of the home is the flexible guest suite layout, offering a private bedroom, laundry area, and separate living space ideal for a sitting room or office. This area can be closed off from the main home, making it ideal for guests, multigenerational living or future income potential. With existing plumbing in place, there is also the opportunity for a buyer to add a private bath and create an independent suite. Days are spent on the water, afternoons by the pool and evenings watching the sky light up over the lake. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or a property that offers lifestyle and flexibility, this home delivers. Outside a high-risk flood zone, this property also offers added peace of mind and affordability advantages for today's buyers. If you've been searching for Florida lake living with character, modern updates and room to grow, this is the one.

Angie was absolutely amazing throughout our home-buying journey. From day one, she took the time to explain every step of the process and made sure both Jeffrey and I understood what was happening and what our options were. As first-time buyers, that guidance meant so much to us. Her communication was excellent and she was always available to answer questions, kept us informed, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. Angie was also a fantastic negotiator. She successfully negotiated seller-paid closing costs and helped ensure that the repairs we requested were addressed, saving us both money and stress. What stood out most was how confident she made us feel throughout the entire process. She never pressured us and always took the time to help us make informed decisions that were right for our family. We truly felt like she was advocating for us every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better Realtor and are so grateful for everything Angie did to help us get into our new home. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and caring real estate professional!
