Property Description
Welcome to Rice Lake Retreat — Where Luxury Meets Nature. Tucked away on a serene 2.9-acre lakefront estate, this meticulously maintained custom home offers the perfect blend of refined luxury and peaceful seclusion. Boasting approximately 200 feet of shoreline along scenic Rice Lake, this one-of-a-kind property provides the privacy of country living with the convenience of being just 30 minutes from the metro. Designed with comfort and functionality in mind, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship throughout. The recently renovated chef’s kitchen is complete with professional-grade appliances, double ovens, and a spacious center island—ideal for both gourmet cooking and entertaining. Just off the kitchen, a screened-in porch and deck provide the perfect space to relax and take in the breathtaking views. The luxurious primary suite features an ensuite bath with dual vanities, heated floors, and an expansive walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The walk-out lower level is an entertainer’s dream, offering a Tuscan-style wine cellar, full bar/wet bar, inviting family room, exercise space, cedar closet, and an additional bedroom for guests. Step outside to your private oasis, where panoramic lake views set the stage. Enjoy the professionally landscaped grounds, composite decking, a cozy firepit, and your own private dock (included)—perfect for sunset watching or lakeside lounging. Need storage? The lower-level Spancrete garage is oversized, heated, and fully insulated—ideal for storing lake toys, equipment, or up to two additional vehicles. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the nearby Luce Line Trail, while golf lovers can tee off at four premier courses just minutes away. This rare retreat offers an unparalleled combination of privacy, luxury, and timeless design. Don’t miss your chance to make Rice Lake Retreat your forever home. (Please note that lake levels naturally ebb and flow with the seasons—reaching their highest points during the spring and summer months and gradually lowering through early fall. As a river-fed lake, this natural fluctuation is expected and typical of the area. The dock can be extended or shortened to best accommodate seasonal changes and the homeowner’s preferences. The listing photos shown were taken in early June, when the lake was near its seasonal high.)
