Lake life without the lakefront price. A long drive leads past an arched stone-and-brick entry to this custom 2-story home on 1.33 beautifully landscaped acres in Princeton Lakes, a private water-ski community of four lakes with waterways and parks. Residents enjoy community lake access for fishing, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and swimming, then come home to a peaceful, park-like setting. Lake use is governed by POA rules. Buyer to verify. A sweeping curved staircase greets you in the foyer and sets the tone for 3,919 sq ft of generous, flexible space. The formal dining room has a coffered ceiling and crystal chandelier. The living room fireplace opens to an 18x16 eat-in kitchen with a center island, built-in cabinetry, a butler's pantry, and a sunny breakfast room. A private office with its own fireplace gives you room to work from home. The main-level primary suite has a garden tub, separate shower, separate vanities, and a custom closet system. Upstairs are three more bedrooms and a 20x15 media room with built-in cabinetry, a beverage station, and a wine rack. The utility room has a sink, built-in cabinets, and room for an extra freezer.
