This deeded lakefront home on Jackson Lake is a must-see, offering stunning views, modern updates, and expansive outdoor entertaining spaces! Located in a No Wake Zone on the Alcovy River, this property features three spacious outdoor entertaining areas-a main deck off the house, a rooftop deck over the boathouse, and a stationary dock with two jet ski lifts-all perfect for hosting guests or relaxing by the water. New composite decking on the two main decks and steps, paired with LED night lighting, creates a beautiful and inviting outdoor retreat. Inside, you'll find an enormous kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a cozy den with a built-in bunk closet for extra sleeping space, and two oversized bedrooms on the main level. The lower level adds even more living space with a large additional living room, a bedroom, and a beautifully updated full bath. The entire top floor is dedicated to the luxurious master suite, featuring a massive office space so large it's often mistaken for an extra bedroom! The master bath offers a jetted garden tub and a large shower-the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the lake. This home features real hardwood and tile flooring, Everlast Composite Siding (low-maintenance-no painting, cracking, or peeling), energy-efficient windows, and a 25-year architectural shingle roof. A wood-burning stove in the den keeps things cozy, and an additional platform and chimney in the kitchen allow for a second stove if desired. The deeded lot is .29 acres along with an additional property easement makes the usable space much larger. Plus, parking for up to 6-8 cars ensures plenty of room for guests! No flood insurance is required, making this an ideal investment as a full-time home, vacation getaway, or rental property.
