About This Home

Custom built in 2009 (including foundation/larger diameter waterlines/buried electric lines/Wisconsin mound septic/driveway!), this stunning residence offers an abundance of luxurious features/amenities, meticulously designed for modern living/entertaining. The virtually maintenance free stone/concrete board exterior was newly painted (Summer 2023). Step inside to discover a spacious and inviting floorplan, highlighted by gleaming Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors, a gorgeous new chandelier (2022) in the entry, vaulted 9' ceilings throughout the home (including basement!), stunning moldings, and an open flow that creates a sense of warmth and elegance throughout. The main level boasts spacious formal living and dining rooms, perfect for entertaining guests or hosting family gatherings. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring quiet close cherry cabinetry, a granite island with breakfast bar and granite countertops, pendant and under cabinet lighting, and top-of-the-line appliances including a Wolf 6 burner range, custom Venta hood, LG refrigerator (2022), Panasonic microwave, and Miele dishwasher. The adjacent sunroom/breakfast room offers a tranquil space to enjoy your morning coffee, with access to the butler's pantry with wet bar and wine fridge. The kitchen is open to the spacious family room with a beautiful stone fireplace, 2 built-in rear speakers and wired for surround sound...the perfect place to unwind after a long day! French doors lead into the primary bedroom, which is a true retreat, with a sitting area, huge walk-in closet with Elfa shelving system, and a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a Jacuzzi tub, double shower, and double granite-topped vanities as well as its very own linen closet. All new variegated solid oak hardwood floors (fall 2022) in the primary bedroom, loft, staircase, and upstairs hallway. Three additional bedrooms with new carpet in fall of 2022 provide ample space for family and guests, while the loft with built in library shelving overlooking the foyer offers a cozy spot for working from home. Three full baths on the 2nd level (primary, Jack and Jill and en-suite) will eliminate morning traffic jams. Plantation shutters throughout all 2nd floor windows. The finished basement is an entertainer's paradise, with a basement rec room featuring a built-in projection 3D TV home theater system with professionally painted silver screen wall and a naturally temperature-controlled French door wine cellar for 500+ bottles with custom built racks, a sliding library ladder and granite counter. The basement also boasts a game room with a backlit tray ceiling and a dry bar with granite top and beverage fridge. The unfinished area of the basement is plumbed for a 4th full bath and has a commercial grade U-Line shelved storage room. There are 2 laundry areas (main level and 2nd floor). The main level laundry / mudroom has hookups for a washer and dryer and a utility sink. The conveniently located 2nd floor laundry area makes wash day a breeze and has a new LG washer and dryer (2023). Outside, the professionally landscaped lot offers seasonal plantings for privacy (look for the "Secret Garden!"), a farm style wrap around front porch, a dedicated gas line for the outdoor grill, a hot tub on the expansive stamped concrete flagstone look patio, and a waterfall and fishpond. Other fabulous features include: Generac whole house natural gas permanently installed electric generator (2022); 75 gallon water heater delivers instant hot water to all bathrooms; premium grade water softening system; reverse osmosis to kitchen sink and refrigerator; whole house wired for ethernet. As a member of the exclusive Tower Lakes community, you'll have access to a host of recreational amenities, including a private beach, fishing spots, non-motorized boating, ice skating, and tennis/pickleball courts. Enjoy a vibrant social calendar with events such as the 4th of July celebration, Chili Cookoff, Progressive Dinner and more!
