Property Description
Welcome to your dream home on all-sports Walters Lake — with no public access — in scenic Clarkston. Custom built in 2021, with the basement and bonus room recently finished, this expansive 6-bedroom, 6.2-bath residence sits on nearly 2.5 acres and offers a massive composite deck, two primary suites (can be used as an in law quarters), two full kitchens, and a list of high-end features that's hard to beat. From the moment you enter, sweeping lake views and abundant wildlife set a serene tone. The open-concept main level is built for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, anchored by a sleek see-through fireplace and wired throughout with a high-end Sonos sound system inside and outside the home. Smart Lutron and Kasa switches put lighting and ambiance at your fingertips, and many other smart features like cameras, blinds, garage doors, irrigation system, and more. The home was crafted with spray foam insulation and Andersen 400 Series windows with massive energy efficiency. This home is ideal for hosting at any scale. Step outside to the expansive composite deck, partially covered, perfect for sunrise coffee, alfresco dining, or sunbathing just steps from the primary suite. Down on the lower level, a beautifully finished concrete patio extends the living space outdoors, while inside you'll find one of the most impressive home bars around, a golf simulator, and a fully equipped gym — built for entertaining and everyday enjoyment alike. The nearly 2.5-acre estate-sized lot gives you room for any outdoor activity you can imagine, and two fully finished, heated garages with metallic epoxy floors offer year-round space for vehicles and watercraft. A large floating private dock and boat lift are negotiable with the sale, making lake access turnkey for the right buyer. Zoned to Clarkston Community Schools, this is more than a home — it's a lakefront lifestyle. Schedule your private showing today and experience it for yourself.
