Peaceful, Private, and Custom-Built in Skylake
Discover relaxed mountain living in this beautifully renovated 1991 Cape Cod home, situated in the highly desirable Skylake nature preserve community. Designed for both quiet retreats and effortless entertaining, this residence offers a perfect blend of classic quality and modern updates.
Main Level Living
An oversized front porch welcomes you into a bright interior featuring high ceilings, quality baseboards, and elegant crown molding throughout. The living room, anchored by a full masonry brick fireplace with gas logs, flows seamlessly to a large screened porch and back deck—ideal for grilling. Hidden beneath the luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring in the living room, dining room, guest bath, and walk-in closet are 1-inch yellow pine wood floors awaiting their next chapter.
The gourmet-style kitchen boasts shaker-style pickled wood cabinets, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar adjoining a dining room with a large bay window. A main-level guest suite (or office) provides flexibility with its own walk-in closet and a full bath featuring a spa tub.
An attached two-car garage with a dedicated utility room provides both secure storage and essential protection from the elements and local wildlife.
Spacious Upper Level
The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a massive 5x24 ft. walk-in closet and a private sitting area. The 2008-remodeled ensuite bath includes a tiled seated shower, a classic clawfoot tub, and a double vanity. Two additional bedrooms share a 2015-remodeled bathroom, while a large walk-in attic provides exceptional storage. Note: The wide stairwell is perfectly suited for a stair lift if needed.
Potential & Protection
The 1,408 sq. ft. unfinished basement is a blank canvas—stubbed for plumbing and wired for electric—with its own French doors leading to a brick and cement patio and a separate driveway.
