An extraordinary testament to luxury living, this home has been completely transformed from the ground up by award-winning architect Karl Straussburger. Every detail has been meticulously curated to cater to athletes, artists, chefs, and enthusiasts alike. Nestled on Lake Longmeadow, one of only 14 homes with exclusive riparian rights, this property uniquely features a private peninsula. The waterfront is an angler’s dream, teeming with bass, bluegill, and a variety of wildlife. A US Army Corps of Engineers-installed retaining wall ensures erosion is kept at bay. The floating dock offers seamless access to the lake, leading to a brick patio perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. This area also boasts a cozy fire pit, ideal for enjoying crisp evenings outdoors. With 111 feet of lakefront access, this home is perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and even ice-skating during winter. The expansive backyard is beautifully landscaped with ample space for recreation and a potential swimming pool. Enjoy the bounty of apple and peach trees, along with a flourishing tomato and herb garden. Upon arrival, the custom brick circular driveway and grand foyer set the stage for an exceptional living experience. The open, spacious floor plan highlights the finest craftsmanship and attention to detail. Hardwood flooring flows throughout the main level, leading from a bright piano room with a fireplace to a formal dining room with seating for twelve.
