   Prime Lakeside Home- Artistically Creative

Nestled against the shoreline of Lake Burton, this unique home designed by architect McAlpine Tankersley will dazzle you with character! The 5 bedroom, 5.5 bath home offers glimpses of Lake Burton from almost every room. The dark board and batten exterior creates a stark contrast to the white pine interior with rustic accents, highlighting the ever-transforming colors of the surrounding mountains that peek through the windows.

Upon entering the beautiful antique double doors of the foyer, you are led down a wide set of stairs into a large open space that encompasses the kitchen, dining area and living room. The space boasts magnificent lake views from the long wall of windows as well as Oak plank flooring of varying widths that contrasts exquisitely with the antique white painted pine walls and ceilings. A large antique door in the living room leads out to a deck, only feet from the screened in porch atop the 2 story boathouse.

The minimalist gourmet kitchen is outfitted with a large granite topped island, stainless steel countertops and stainless steel appliances (including a Wolf range), creating a simple, contemporary look. The kitchen also offers a walk-in pantry and a connecting wet bar that leads into an oversized family room. Perfect for entertaining, the family room is complete with an oversized stone fireplace, reclaimed rough hewn ceiling beams…and more lake views. And a half-bath is located just around the corner. Distinctive attention to detail throughout, including antique lighting fixtures and doors, add a vintage feel to this captivating lakeside home.
