Come home to this beautiful, virtually maintenance-free brick ranch in Tower Lakes, offering incredible curb appeal and a location that blends community and nature. Situated on an interior lot with scenic views of one of Tower Lakes’ gorgeous wildflower gardens, this home is located near neighborhood tennis/pickleball and volleyball courts, with a short walk to the private main lake, beach and islands. A brand-new asphalt driveway bordered by river rock (Oct 2024) and lined with breathtaking mature trees leads to the heated, extra-deep 2-car garage complete with hot/cold water and a center drain – perfect for car (or maybe even pet?) washing. A brand new poured concrete walkway, stairs and front porch (Oct 2024) welcome you into your amazing new home! A newer architectural shingle roof (mildew-resistant shingles and newer gutters/downspouts-2017) and garage roof (2015) round out the exterior. The main level beckons you in with gleaming hardwood floors, plantation shutters, neutral paint and wide trim, while large architectural picture windows fill the family room with an abundance of natural light. Snuggle up in front of the gas log fireplace after a long day! The open dining area seamlessly connects to the family room and kitchen and features a built-in hutch for displaying your favorite dishes. The refreshed kitchen with a newer tile backsplash offers views of the deck and fire pit area. For all your culinary needs, a Maytag 4-burner gas range (with broiler on top), GE side-by-side refrigerator with ice and water in the door (2019) and Bosch stainless steel dishwasher (2023) offer modern efficiency. The adjoining 3-season room, lined with cedar and featuring a vaulted ceiling, gas fireplace stove/heater, ceiling fan and recessed lighting, opens to a spacious multi-level deck with pergola-ideal for grilling (natural gas hookup access under deck), entertaining or simply relaxing in the hot tub (hot tub being conveyed as-is).

Hall bath has walk-in shower and its own linen closet. The newly remodeled walkout lower level (Sept 2024) boasts brand-new carpet and paint, a huge rec room with a wood-burning fireplace (Heatilator style), recessed lighting and an office space with built-in desk and custom cabinetry. An expansive bonus room offers endless possibilities, whether as an exercise room, playroom or additional storage (bring your ideas!), while the fourth bedroom-currently used as an office-features a walk-in closet.
