Property Description

Designed by architect Peter Roesch, a direct student of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, this exceptional residence embodies the timeless principles of true modernist design. With clean lines, expansive walls of glass, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, the home is not only an architectural gem but also offers a rare opportunity to experience waterfront living on the stunning 85-acre Lake of the Coves. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking lake views and flood the home with natural light, creating a serene, ever-changing backdrop. Exceptional craftsmanship and curated designer finishes shine throughout, including timeless travertine floors, impressive 8-foot doors, and custom European walnut cabinetry accented with distinctive leather cabinet pulls. At the center of the home, a dramatic 22' x 17' sunken conversation pit with a fireplace crowned by a sculptural copper hood serves as a sophisticated focal point. A curved architectural wall finished in Venetian plaster elegantly separates the living room from the kitchen, adding a dramatic custom design element. The finished basement features a spacious family room, a 380-bottle wine wall, oversized storage, and a dedicated dog-wash room. The private sauna and changing rooms lead you to the extraordinary 38' x 35' indoor area that creates a true year-round retreat, featuring an inground pool and whirlpool spa. More floor-to-ceiling windows with breathtaking views of the lake bring the beauty of the waterfront indoors. Embrace the ultimate lake lifestyle with your own private boat dock equipped with electric power-perfect for effortless days on the water, sunset cruises, and lakeside entertaining. Whether it's morning coffee by the water, afternoons spent boating, or evenings enjoying peaceful panoramic views, this home offers a lifestyle that feels like a year-round vacation. This home is truly a must-see for buyers seeking something special.
