Welcome to this beautifully updated rambler on Clear Lake, where a level, tree-lined lot and rustic nautical charm create the perfect lakeside escape. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features multiple living and dining spaces—including formal and informal dining rooms, a cozy family room, and a lakeside living room—all showcasing breathtaking views of the water. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed to take in the scenery as well. A fantastic bonus is the double garage, expertly converted into a stylish gathering space with epoxy flooring, upgraded lighting, ceiling fan, and abundant cabinet and counter space—ideal for entertaining. Outside, enjoy a half-circle blacktop driveway, two lakeside storage sheds, a spacious lakeside deck, and a firepit area perfect for evenings by the water. The lush green lawn leads to a beautifully boulder-landscaped shoreline spanning 174 feet (30ft hard bottom), completing this perfect lakeside retreat.
