"Magical sunsets, steps from the water, views, views, and views. Peaceful neighborhood, level ground great for biking, rollerblading, or walking to Jakes for dinner. The house has been well cared for and loved. There are two fireplaces, a great family room and fun bar area for entertaining. We did not have children in school here so cannot speak to that but the grandkids love yard and the lake! "
