Description

๐Ÿก 126 Lakeshore Drive โ€“ Waterfront Living with Space for Family and Friends

Set along the shores of beautiful White Lake, this waterfront property offers the kind of setting many buyers dream about, private, peaceful, and designed to make the most of life on the water. With 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and over 2,100 square feet of finished living space, there is room here for family gatherings, visiting guests, or multi-generational living.

The setting is what truly stands out. Mature trees provide privacy, the shoreline provides easy access to swimming and waterfront recreation, while the views across White Lake create a backdrop that changes beautifully with the seasons. The sellers have especially loved the peaceful atmosphere and the ability to enjoy the lake right from their own backyard.

โœจ Main Living Spaces

The main level is designed to take advantage of the waterfront setting, with bright living areas that capture natural light and lake views throughout the day. Large windows help bring the outdoors in, while the layout offers comfortable spaces for both everyday living and entertaining.

The spacious kitchen provides plenty of workspace and storage, flowing naturally into the dining and living areas. Whether you’re hosting family dinners or enjoying a quiet evening by the fire, the home offers a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere.

One of the home’s most loved features is the expansive covered verandah overlooking the water. It’s an ideal place to start the day with coffee, enjoy a meal outdoors, or simply relax while watching the lake. The propane fireplace adds warmth and comfort during cooler months, making the home enjoyable year-round.

๐Ÿ› Bedrooms and Lower Level

The main floor features four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, offering flexibility for families of all sizes. The layout allows everyone to have their own space while keeping daily living convenient and accessible.

The walkout lower level adds a level of versatility that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Here you’ll find a spacious recreation and living area, an additional bedroom, a full bathroom, and direct access to the waterfront. Whether you’re accommodating extended family, welcoming overnight guests, pursuing hobbies, or simply looking for extra living space, this lower level adapts to a variety of needs.

๐ŸŒฟ Outdoor Space

Life here naturally revolves around the outdoors.

The gently sloping lot leads down to the shoreline, where you’ll find a private dock, a bunkie, and a storage shed along the side of the home. The property offers plenty of room for outdoor games, lakeside gatherings, or simply enjoying the view from the waterfront.

White Lake is known for its recreational opportunities, and this property provides easy access to swimming, boating, kayaking, fishing, and peaceful days spent by the water. Whether you’re entertaining family and friends or enjoying a quiet afternoon on the dock, the setting encourages a slower pace and a stronger connection to nature.

The mature trees surrounding the property create a sense of privacy while still preserving beautiful sightlines across the lake. It’s a setting that feels tucked away, yet remains convenient to nearby communities.
